Pros: easy to follow, well laid out
"With all tools, sometimes its an informative how to book which seems to get left off the list. Well this is a must for your tool box if you are an enthusiastic cyclist who is willing to do a fair bit of maintenance on their own bike. Lists jobs in a well concise manner with ability ratings on how easy or hard a job is and what tools are required. A good book on bikes from the people who bring you the Car Maintenance guides."
