When author Rob van der Plas wrote The Original Mountain Bike Book in the early 1980s, he essentially wrote the mountain biker's bible. For more than a decade, it has remained the finest book on this fastest growing segment of bicycling. This new edition is loaded with up-to-date information on the sophisticated technology that now goes into mountain bike design and componentry. Mountain biking legend Charles Kelly has added a section on the many styles of mountain bike racing and how enthusiasts can get involved.
