Review by BertrandReviewed 5/4/2023by Bertrand (BikeTiresDirect.com Staff)Competitive RacerPortland, OR2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Always at arm's length, so much better than using my phone.This book is basically the entire ParkTool YouTube channel distilled into a printed form. All of the tips, tricks and step-by-step instructions straight from Calvin Jones, all without having to look at a screen.
My copy is well loved, and is never out of sight of my workbench.

Review by TrekkerReviewed 7/7/2023by TrekkerMaplewood, NJ1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.An Outrageously Good Book on Bike Repair I wanted an updated book on bike repair and the Park Tool BBB-4 Big Blue Book of Bike Repair supplied it in spades. With simple and clear explanations, it covers all aspects of bike repair, from brake hood adjustment to the intricacies of disc brake adjustment. A must book for any rider wanting to make any sort of repair or adjustment on their bike.

Review by Fussy SwedeReviewed 6/30/2023by Fussy SwedeCompetitive RacerWisconsinGreat resource, but my copy has a glaring defectWonderful graphics combined with clearly written instructions. Well organized.
However, Chapter 14 was inserted upside down when it was bound. The �tops� of every page were cut off so it doesn�t exactly work to turn the book upside down to read it.
Quality Control should have caught this and I can�t imaging that my copy is the only one.
