Boardman ADV 8.9 2021

Jul 2021 · Stu Kerton

An excellent entry point to gravel riding thanks to sorted geometry and a great ride quality from the Boardman's frameset

Highs
  • Quality groupset for the money

  • Great ride quality

  • Decent tyre clearances

Lows
  • Narrow rims don't lend themselves well to wide tyres

  • Very thin bar tape

Boardman ADV 9.0 gravel bike review

Feb 2021 · Marc Abbott

British brand’s newest all-roader is high on versatility and fairly easy on the pocket

Highs
  • Easy-going geometry

  • Sprightly when it wants to be

  • Well geared

  • Well-specced tyres (with clearance for even wider)

  • Decent price

  • Comfortable for hours

Lows
  • Little to baulk at

  • Except perhaps the basic alloy finishing kit
