Pros: the light frame
"I'm just starting to cycle to work and this bike and has completely boost my confidence.
It's light, easy to move in traffic.
Although the bike is unisex - the seat could be a bit more comfy."

Pros: smooth drive, very fast on the road, great gears
"I have been using a mountain bike to commute to work and i have noted a huge difference in use this new road bike. It rides effortlessly and is very smooth. They have used the best components available and it is very decently priced. I have now been using the bike for around two weeks and i just love it. Cant find any defects with it so far. Would certainly recommend this product. I would have given it 5 star had this bike been provided with disk brakes - the only thing i feel missing."

"Have a good mountain bike but wanted a bike that was more responsive and versatile for road riding as well as country tracks. This bike fits these needs perfectly and is going to get a lot of use particularly when tracks dry out.
With Boardman you get a great frame no horrible welds showing, quality parts and the back up from Halfords.
Many complain about not getting specialised service from Halfords compared with a bike shop, I disagree my branch was excellent both in purchase, setup and still have my free service to come. Great bike I love it.
