Now, at last, with this new, updated and enlarged edition it has been thoroughly revised, and more than 300 new, step-by-step, how-to photographs have been added to the 660 photographs retained from the original edition -- a total of 960 illustrations, each with full explicit directions. 'Glenn's New Complete Bicycle Manual' is now the most comprehensive guide to bicycle maintenance and repair available. Its clear, detailed, easy-to-follow instructions cover removing, disassembling, cleaning and inspecting, installing, and adjusting components. This new, revised and enlarged edition also includes updated information on how to buy a bicycle, setting up the home workshop, riding skills, and bicyclists' organizations. But above all, it covers maintenance of every part of all types of bicycles: racing, touring, utility, and off-road ; adult and children's bicycles ; multi-speed, three-speed, and single-speed ; American-made and imported ; conventional and sealed-bearing components. Here is the book for the bicycle enthusiast who is interested in doing his or her own maintenance and repair, for the touring or racing cyclist who may be required to make emergency repairs and adjustments, and for the professional mechanic who is employed in servicing bicycles."--
