The magazine is full of reviews,articles and reports though they are often biased towards Sportive and racing cycling. Bikes are often stripped and checked/weighed before riding but I feel some tests are only quick spins and not always very informative. Likewise some product reviews are just sales blurb reprinted. Overall the articles are reasonably unbiased but it is obvious from some tests they have been given a freebie. I have been suscribing for a very long time and do feel it has gone downhill since the new editor came in (every other page is now an advert thats probably why they aren't quite as critical now). I wasn't going to renew this time, though I would have bought it on spec as and when, however I got it on a special offer which is well worth it.I would recommend this magazine if you are interested in fast road riding and dropped handlebars. Serious enthusiasts only.
