Beschreibung
The Scooter Bible is an entertaining, colorful, and authoritative history of the little motorbikes that could.
Beginning with the first motor scooter in 1902, Eric Dregni is your guide to everything from the postwar American scooter boom to the golden age of Italian and European scooters, the rise of Mod scooter culture in England . . .
right up to modern electric scooters.
Today, nostalgia for vintage Vespas, Piaggios, Cushmans, Lambrettas, and other top brands drive a new thirst for retro-inspired scooters in showrooms around the world. This
revised and updated edition of
The Scooter Bible brings the story up to date with the drive for zero emissions via
electric vehicles. Throughout, author Eric Dregni offers you a wealth of imagery:
historic black-and-white photos, evocative
period advertisements,
manufacturer photos, and more—over 500 images! Along the way, he also shows you scooter
evolution, changing
technologies, and scooter
appearances in popular culture.
And as the
most comprehensive scooter book ever,
The Scooter Bible also includes the world’s most
exhaustive encyclopedia of scooter brands, from Puddlejumper to Piaggio, Ducati to Doodlebug, and Zündapp Bella to Genuine Stella.
The Scooter Bible is all you need before kick-starting your scooter engine to life and praying for ever more speed.
Indeed, scooters are
mechanical marvels on two wheels. Streamlined spuds. Mutant oddballs of Jet Age styling gone berserk. Innovative inventions shoehorned like sardines into miniaturized monocoque bodies. Engineering and styling enigmas (the stranger the better). They are
the weird and the wonderful. And they are
all here in The Scooter Bible.
