The Boardman Road Team Carbon is dead. Long Live the Boardman SLR 8.9 carbon!
Quality modern-looking carbon frame and all-carbon fork, great commuter/sportive ride, tubeless-ready wheels
It’s Tiagra rather than 105, not quite as light as some aluminium bikes, lack of rack mounts and slightly high bottom gear

Really impressive road bike that's built around a corker of a frameset, and the price is very good too
