100% Biker Magazine Description:

100% Biker is the UK’s best custom bike magazine - no ifs no buts. Launched in 1999, the magazine has firmly established itself as the prime mover and shaker on the British custom bike scene, documenting the very best bikes and lifestyle events.
Each issue of 100% Biker showcases the leading custom bikes from the UK and worldwide. From rats to streetfighters to out-and-out choppers, 100% Biker is the best place to find out what’s hot and what’s not. We go out of our way to cover the best events (rallies, shows and parties) from the biker calendar too - everything from the smallest one-dayer to the biggest bikerfestivals on the planet. Basically - if it’s on - it’s in!
Published 13 times a year, the magazine also features readers’ photographs, letters and jokes. We probably have the most comprehensive events listings anywhere in bikerdom, and we offer our readers the chance to sell their bikes free in the magazine too.
