«This book is a must for anyone who builds, maintains and services their own bikes. Clearly written with lots of tips, especially for beginners.» Year 1999

In 1999, today's standard reference book for do-it-yourself bicycle wheel building was published for the first time: “The Art of Wheelbuilding”. Bendicht Luginbühl is the author of the later cult book, which is already in its 6th edition in the USA under the title “The Art of Wheelbuilding”. The former star among racing mechanics, Gerd Schraner from Basel, spent countless nights working with the journalist Luginbühl on a work that is now regarded by professionals and amateurs alike as the do-it-yourself bible for wheelbuilding.
