The Official Tour de France Bike Maintenance Book goes exclusively
behind the scenes with the finest professional cycling mechanics
during the most gruelling and high-pressure bike race in the world.
Working at the cutting edge of bicycle technology, Tour mechanics
expertly maintain high performance race bikes every day throughout
the Tour. The highlight, for many fans, is watching the bikes being
prepared before a stage and serviced after it. The reader is put in
the fans' shoes, with exclusive insights and images from the life
of a Tour mechanic, with in-race stories and technical advice.
Practical sections in each chapter show the home mechanic how to
perform essential maintenance tasks and personalise their own
bicycles to Tour de France standards. Even if bikes are serviced by
shop mechanics, vital checks and regular adjustments are covered in
these pages and, to make a bike stand out, there are professional
tricks of the trade as well as the small but telling detailing jobs
to enhance the bike's looks. Another feature of The Official Tour
de France Bike Maintenance Book focuses on the growing interest in
classic racing machines, which are collected, ridden and displayed
in 'Eroica' festivals, events celebrating the heroic age of
cycling. These, of course, include Tour de France bikes from the
past 75 years and there are features on these classic bikes, with
maintenance tips using traditional tools and techniques.
