Your Complete Guide to Trials Riding

Résumé éditeur

In all, "Your Complete Guide to Trials Riding: Street Trials Augmented Edition" combines over 20 years of experience and observations into concise and practical tutorials for trials riders and mountain bikers wishing to broaden their skills, whether they want to ride in natural settings or on fast flowing urban lanes. It all starts with balance and a few hops on the back wheel, before you challenge yourself on new lines and obstacles, looking at new ways to push your limits. The full colour 288-page paperback carefully reviews over 70 trials techniques and cool transitions, from basic bike manoeuvring to the most sophisticated moves as performed by professional riders either at UCI competitions or in popular street-trials videos, all wrapped up in a compact A5 format for a more comfortable read and a lasting impression. The book details all the moves step-by-step with numerous photos and tips that will boost both your confidence and riding ability. Also included are several chapters about the sport's evolution, bike geometry and setup, as well as general preparation advice. A novelty for this Street Trials Augmented Edition, QR codes have been integrated on the pages to provide you with direct access to relevant slow-motion videos on your smartphone. This beautifully illustrated edition is definitely the most complete handbook you will find about the techniques of bike trials and will prove invaluable for riders, their coaches and anyone wanting to learn more about this spectacular sport. Endorsed by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), this carefully crafted handbook features numerous photos from top riders competing at UCI's recent Trials World Cups and World Championships.
