Help finding a good bicycle repair book

[NorthMi]

Can anyone recommend a good bike repair book that covers disassembly & repair of coaster brakes and the older kick shift rear hubs?

Thanks for any suggestions in advance!

this link will bring you to the late, great Sheldon Brown, with almost everything you'd ever need to fix a bike:

Sheldon Brown-Bicycle Technical Information

i duno if he has any how-to's on overhauling a kick-back hub, but google searching by brand name (like "Bendix kick-back hub") should find you an exploded diagram.

I had found the Sheldon Brown site before, some how I lost it, the link from it to the Park Tool Blog was also great help, after cruising through it I think one of the books I get will be the Big Blue Book from Park.
Have been to the local Library and checked out 3 books so far, problem is none of them cover the cruiser's or kick shift rear hubs. Going to try and get back to the library today or tomorrow and pick up some older repair books, plus look at the BMX info.

Still would like to loacate a couple good repair books for the up coming Michigan heavy white flaky rain season (will NOT say the w word).

Thanks for the info & help bairdco, Mike

Been using the Big Blue Book for about 2 years now. Glad i got one because every now and then I need it. So far, I have not run into anything that this book does not cover.

Same here almost everything you could need is in there.

I know this won't help the OP, but here's a copy of Sutherlan's Handbook For Bicycle Mechanics. It is an older version, but maybe helpful working on other bicycles. You can buy the latest version, but it is very expensive. I suggest you download the PDF since it is slow reading on-line:

Good Luck,
