"Lennard Zinn's book is packed with in-depth explanations and useful diagrams." - Velo magazine "Lennard Zinn is a veritable cycling Einstein, and as a naturally gifted teacher he has the unique ability to explain even the most difficult mechanical task. So unless you currently ride on a high-profile pro team with your own mechanic (and maybe even then), Zinn & the Art of Road Bike Maintenance is an absolute 'must-have' book." -Davis Phinney, Olympic medalist, U.S. Pro champion, and Tour de France stage winner "Lennard Zinn is an institution in the bicycle world-a legend. Legions of cyclists have learned to repair bikes from him, ridden bicycles he's built, or used his advice as guidance on how to better enjoy the world on two wheels." - Bicycle Times magazine "Today''s bicycles are complicated machines that can be expensive to maintain and repair. Zinn has written this book to help both the leisure bike rider and expert mechanic handle almost any problem associated with road bikes." - Library Journaltry{F5_flush(document);}catch(e){} " Zinn & the Art of Road Bike Maintenance has instructions on anything an aspiring wrench would want to know. What impresses most is Lennard's overall approach of simplifying a task and reminding us how rewarding it is to perform our own service." - Podium Café "Lennard Zinn really is the world's most helpful and comprehensive human when it comes to bicycle repair and maintenance." - Bike magazine "When you read Zinn's books, it's like he's sharing secrets from the pro ranks with you… The illustrations in this book are as informative as they are enjoyable to look at.

Or, at least, it placated many home mechanics when they started cursing skipped shifts or loose headsets." - Canadian Cycling magazine "If ever there was a classic text on bike maintenance, this has to be it…Like its predecessors, it goes from super simple right through to complete re-builds. All are explained by a combination of Zinn's unique humour-filled, insightful and clear text, with Todd Telander's brilliant illustrations." - 220 Triathlon "Zinn is very good at taking you incrementally through the learning process-whether you are a beginner or expert mechanic." - Out There Monthly magazine "There really is no other bicycle repair manual like this. Zinn & the Art of Road Bike Maintenance is very up to date, very clear-thanks to the profuse illustrations-and accurate and comprehensive…And it's all in a very enjoyable format intended to be encouraging and confidence-building." - USCyclingReport.com "There is a wealth of excellent info in this rather large tome… Zinn makes little pre-supposition as to the technical abilities of his readers and it''s this aspect that makes you feel that you can manage the majority of the repairs detailed in the book." - TheWashingMachinePost.net "Simple to read and follow, the illustrated, large-format paperback manual features everything from replacing a flat to repairing components. It's a great addition to any new biker's library but offers invaluable advice for experts, too." - Sports Guide magazine try{F5_flush(document);}catch(e){}, "Lennard Zinn's book is packed with in-depth explanations and useful diagrams." - Velo magazine "Lennard Zinn is a veritable cycling Einstein, and as a naturally gifted teacher he has the unique ability to explain even the most difficult mechanical task.

Zinn & the Art of Road Bike Maintenance is very up to date, very clear-thanks to the profuse illustrations-and accurate and comprehensive.

All are explained by a combination of Zinn's unique humour-filled, insightful and clear text, with Todd Telander's brilliant illustrations." - 220Triathlon.com "Regardless of your skill level, this book is a great manual to have on hand. In its 5th edition, Zinn adds to an already impressive knowledge base, keeping things up-to-date with current innovations and tools. It doesn't spend all of its 464 pages going over installation and maintenance procedures; there are also a lot of useful tips and tricks." - Adventure Cycling magazine "Zinn is very good at taking you incrementally through the learning process-whether you are a beginner or expert mechanic." - Out There Monthly magazine "This book almost rates along with those 'missing manuals' that exist for computer software. When was the last time the manual that came with your bike bore any relation to it? Exactly. You could barely buy a decent tire for the price of this book and that should be justification enough." - TheWashingMachinePost.net "Simple to read and follow, the illustrated, large-format paperback manual features everything from replacing a flat to repairing components.
