While the layout and artwork action on this book may be a little compromised the information inside is awesome. If you love these little bikes this is a book you'll want to have in your library.
The story behind the whole Sixteener Special is accurately and entertainingly told within these pages. The interviews are quite telling of the times in which these bikes were developed. The legislation behind the Sixteener Specials only lasted six years before it was overcome, but for that short time some really wonderful bikes were produced.

Mostly talks about "Sports Mopeds" scene of the 1970's in the UK. Yamaha FS1, Garelli Tigercross, Malaguti Olympique, etc. Most of the sports mopeds are 3-6 speed manual shift machines. Such great pics and great stories too. Lots of neat info. Puch Monza is actually one of the least desirable of the models haha, too slow. I didn't buy my book here but I truly enjoy reading it. not much info the mopeds we have here in the USA
