In the 80's, could I only get three mx magazines here in Sweden and it was easy to make
the choses, but now it's so many that I can't make my mind wish to borrow.

The airfilter maintenance issue of Freerider was legendary.

I live in Sweden as well. Borrow? It's rather easy and not that costly to get a subscription on any one. 80 % of the price is shipping which sux. I have tried MXA (bike focus), RacerX (people focus), Transworld (mix of the two). Since I'm more interested in bikes and riding more than what Bubba thinks of the Chad I go with MXA for the moment. But I would like to have all three.

There are some very good French and British mags as well!

Well you probably have like 20 good ones to choose from. Good luck! Smile

I would have to say MXA. The only magazine that speaks their mind and could care less about the industry political fall out.

MXA is the best for bike tests/product reviews/techincal info.

Racer X is good for MX history/rider profiles/behind the scenes.

Transworld is too much fluf. I don't really trust heir bike tests and they love every product they have ever tested excpet for the helmet that he broke bare handed and the bull rider chest protector.

I do subscribe to all three.

Racer X and Motocross Action and the two best.
Transworld is a joke and Dirt rider and Dirt bike are not much better.

What are the Euro MX Magazines you like the best? I was just having a discussion with a friend of mine about as much as I know about motocross my knowledge of MX mags outside the US is seriously lacking.

I gotta support Dirt Rider even though it is the most general. Jimmy is a beast (toughest dude I know and if you doubt that, challenge him to a foot race around GH after the national next week, seriously) and all the guys there are great. They are all core and put together a consistently good magazine.

MXA was great back in the day but come on, doesn't Jody just repeat his stories now? Great mag if you are 50 plus.

Racer X, too much lifestyle and they are too enchanted with their own celebrity.

TWMX is great if you have just reached puberty.

I have to thank all of you, who answer this topic first, then it seem like MXA is the moost popular magazine, but I bought one a few weeks ago and get disapointed of it becouse it was'nt what I expected, but time changes and I have'nt had one seen's early 90's so that's why I started this topic.
