Mag41 is quite a popular, free digimag from Germany, made by young riders in love with various aspects of the mountain bike sport, such freeriding, downhill racing, enduro or dirt jumping. It's a dynamic and professional group, consisting of passionate bikers and racers, who have gained experience in the journalistic sector as well as the racing scene during various years. Together, they created a kind of lifestyle mag featuring a unique design and some nice interactive features.
The first four German issues received great feedback, so the Mag41 editorial team decided to step it up a bit and publish an international issue in English, and we plan to publish quarterly. Take a look at some of the ideas behind the mag and a glimpse of the content:
Nowadays “Globalization” might appear as an old-fashioned word. But back in the day it was meant to be the solution for upcoming problems. “Globalization” meant future and unlimited opportunities. Accompanied by the digitization of media, the conventional publishing houses had to face the new circumstances. For them there neither seems to be a clear solution for the arising problems, nor a predictable future. We do not pretend to have found both. But instead of waiting and watching, we are trying, planning and creating. After one year of making Mag41 in German we now embrace the advantages of the infinite possibilities of the digital era and spread the magazine globally. Our future: Globalization. Our medium: Digital. Our solution: International publishing. Our price: None. MAG41 IS FREE!!
Over 140 pages full of breathtaking photos, interesting articles, interviews & reviews add up to our first international Issue!
Cult & classic – For each bike we thought of something special: The Intense M9 was brought to a mystic castle to cope with its evil and fearless character. The Kona Entourage Deluxe was taken to the Swiss Alps where we experienced a revival of the good old New World Disorder times. Awesome. To shred Yeti’s all mountain-bike SB-66 like a downhill rig we went to the lonely mountains of the Italian village Calizzano: Far away from the civilization we let the Yeti run wild.
We tested 12 of the most interesting DH race tires at the Bad Wildbad bike park in Germany, which is famous for its very technical and rocky downhill track. To perform the testing we enlisted the help of the German downhill champion Benny Strasser and also the runner up to the championship Noah Grossman, who are both racing for the Mag41 Racing Team. Next to extensive practical tests, we also performed lab tests such as rolling resistance, snake-bite and puncture resistance at Continental’s lab in Korbach, Germany.
