Good content but very brief. Only valuable if you know nothing about bicycles or trails. Also could use more content on choosing a bike.

More like a pamphlet than a book, this is a quick and dirty primer. It took maybe 20 minutes to read through.

Reviewed in Canada on August 28, 2021

Very basic information which might be helpful if you don't know what a mountain bike is. It's so short I don't think it even qualifies as a book, and certainly not for $4.
