  • Quality ride: comfortable while still engaging

Lows
  • Budget wheelset

  • Narrower gear range than Ultegra can accommodate

  • Worth considering the disc-brake version

Boardman SLR Endurance Disc 9.0 review

Jul 2018 · Guy Kesteven

Firm rather than forgiving ride and dated kit but still a seriously quick all-rounder. Buy if you don’t mind older kit and a firmer ride if that gets you a fast and exciting all-rounder

Highs
  • Lightweight, power efficient, swift and accurate handling disc racer with semi-sportive position

Lows
  • Unforgiving ride for an endurance bike, older Ultegra, brake and axle standards, no ’guard mounts, slippery tyres
