Providing a comprehensive look into the ever-growing world of off-road cycling, this book explains why mountain bikes have re-invented the popular image of the bicycle, making riding a bike fashionable, comfortable, pleasant and ultimately rewarding. It covers the history, the excitement, the diverse styling and the technology that surrounds the mountain bike. It offers the reader an educational look at the mountain bike's roots, its heroes, the often baffling design diversification of its many disciplines, fitness, bike anatomy and specialist kit. There are also chapters on the practical aspects of riding technique and bike care.
