thanks ste5,
yeah i've been considering the exclusion i'd be creating by making it fixed only, but since my main riding world is fixed i've decided to stick to that as a guide but allow for other genres of non-competitive cycling. there is such a thing as having too wide a scope, and i think it would be more of a mistake to try to cover too much ground, especially since it's just me doing this at the moment. what is intuitive to me based on my experience (which is why there's some other genres i also deffo want to include).
i'm not ruling out expanding to all aspects, which yeah i agree would be a great magazine! but right now my main focus is not that, and based on my research it would be more difficult than it appears on the surface. exclusivity doesn't have to always be a bad thing, when done in the right manner and using the appropriate tools of advertising. although i think from what you've mentioned you will like the mag, once it's done, if it gets done especially ideas like 'people who build spoke nipples', since i have a similar thing to that in my collection of content pieces.
