About this Item

Description:

Description: Well illustrated in black and white. From the jacket blurb: ''Here, for the first time in a single comprehensive and fully illustrated volume, is all the information you need to undertake the complete design and construction of your own frameset -- authoritatively written by a veteran bike racer and amateur bicycle builder who has been through every step of the design-build process himself. Dick Talbot focuses his technical expertise and broad cycling experience on the sometimes bewildering subject of frame building. The result is an illuminating and concise account of the pertinent design principles, skills, and techniques which must be mastered to achieve a roadworthy frameset. Purchasers of professionally built custom bicycles will also benefit from the detailed guidance this book provide for laying out and specifying a frameset geometry that will precisely match their cycling requirements. Even the casual rider will find t his book of value for selecting a ready-built bicycle that will not only 'fit' properly but perform efficiently.'' Originally published in 1979, this is the second printing.
