Looking something for my nephew's birthday, anyone know of a decent book for tricks and stunts etc or any other mountain bike presents you can recommend. Ta!

I got a bike maintenance book at about that age. It was brilliant as it had simple pictorial guides for everything from changing brake pads to truing a wheel. Used it for years.

Not MTB related as such but I can really recommend "The boy who biked the world" series by Alistair Humphreys.

Get some wanderlust in the young lad....

Brian Lopes book
Maybe a bit too detailed for a 10 year old, but he'll still be reading it in 10 years time

The Brian Lopes one is probably the most useful in terms of technique.
