What mountain bike is another of the Mountain Bike magazines that are available on the newsagents shelves. This one comes out only once a quarter, so its £3.75 price tag is reasonable, especially considering it is mostly content, rather than adverts. The late summer (2000) issue covered a wide variety of topics, ranging from Bike reviews to in-depth articles on women and mountain biking (anatomy, bike fit etc).
