Performance Bike Magazine, now known by the shortend title of "PB" magazine, is a monthly British motorcycling magazine. Possibly the greatest in the world.
The magazine features a mix of motorcycle and product tests, with technical articles and design innovation.
In 2007, PB Magazine moved testing of many of the motorcycles to the Nürburgring, in the Eifel Mountains of Germany. Where the Nordschleife fastest lap times are captured and collated into a table. This feature is called the PBTT, which stands for Performance Bikes Test Track.
PB is notable its association with the late John Robinson and for being the first magazine to pioneer the use of testing motorcycles using a dynamometer.
