" Bike Mechanic offers an unusual point of view. It's a joint venture between VeloPress and Rouleur so as always the publication is of very high quality and many of the photos approach art. With the cycling season coming to an end for many of us, this is an excellent read for dark winter evenings, fun to just browse through, and would be a fine gift for any cyclist, even one with or without a workstand." -- PezCyclingnews.com " Bike Mechanic includes about 150 pages of workshop and tool porn...While it is not strictly a how-to guide, Guy covers the essential tools of bike maintenance. Everything from tire repair to the most beautifully illustrated guide to cutting steerer tubes that I've seen are covered in the repair basics." -- Cyclelicio.us "A mix of clear how-to and entertaining storytelling from the guys who keep the Pro Tour riders rolling." -- Sanjay Gupta for Triathlete magazine, " Bike Mechanic offers an unusual point of view.

    Package was a little slow in shipping initially, so I contacted the seller and they graciously upgraded the shipping to 2-day. The book got here quickly and it was in the "new" condition that was claimed.You often learn the most about people when they are challenged and have the opportunity to either rise to the challenge, or not. So in that respect, they passed the test with flying colors. All in all a good experience, thank you.
