£5.99 - i wouldn't pay that for any magazine, and i mean any !

I agree, it is a bit steep. Especially seen as there are 3 other main bike mags already, aswell as many others like dirt

 At £5.99 its going to be hardpushed to find many customers

what about Rouleur at £9??

Never heard of it before, valid point, but its quarterly so it it would be the same as buying mbr or something every month.

Good reply David!

 will we be able to see a preview online?

I'm sure we can look at the previewing something out of the magazine.. Though if your eyesight is better than mine you can always try and read the pages shown in the article

Ut'll be good to see a mag aimed at cycling rather than just road or off road

I'll have a punt on issue 1

£5.99 would have been bearable, but there's another £2.25 on top for postage making it £8.24.

Needless to say I didn't complete the order.

That is quite steep for post

I ordered anyway

£5.99, is this a joke?

Yeah not being funny, but aren't first issues meant to be cheaper so I can have a look at it BEFORE thinking about shelling out nearly a tenner on a magazine (what with the £2.25 postage).

Put it in a shop, make it £4.99 (still £1 more than MBR) and I'll consider it.

Oh.... and yeah, maybe it IS different, and is more about the bikes or whatever... but personally, it's £5.99 I'd rather put towards another bike.

Well if it's (nearly all) editorial they won't be subsidised quite as heavily as the other mags are (even £3.99 is still a loss making price without the advertising revenue).

Still, that's bloody expensive postage for a mag with only 108 pages... is it mahoosive or something?

Will give it a go though

Well, if I see it on a shelf here in Barcelona I might be tempted. But I am certainly not going to spend that much money, wait probably two weeks, pick it up from the post office and then find out that its not that good.

If theres a bit of female tit and arse in it I shall buy.Im guessing there must be for that kinda price.

I did ask some time ago on the forum if there was a mag in the offing but the thread went without reply. 

I'll order one shortley when my bank cards handy. £5.99 isn't too much for a specialist quarterly magazine, i already read 2 one at £5.99 and one at £12.50. and what i don't get in either is l;oads of ads, yes one or two but not 90% of the pages being ads. Postage does seem a bit highbut still it comes to around the price of 2 issues of mbuk or simialr and i cetrainly din't read 50pages of decent stuff per issue, so i'll take a punt on this new mag.

Would you consider also making it available as a pdf file (for people who live outside the UK)?

Hello Everyone,  It seems there is a problem as the magazine should not have any postage costs attached.  We will make the appropriate change on Monday,  and all who have bought the magazine so far will be refunded on their postage.

Apologies to anyone who has been through the checkout process and found the postage charge at the end.

Many Thanks

Will there be any duplication between articles on here and articles you find in the magazine or will it all be fresh stuff?

I'd be reluctant to spend £5.99 to find either the same info I've read on here or that the articles appear on line a short time after being in the magazine or something.
