I bought the wife a Boardman Pro hybrid last year (which was the top model at the time)...I was dubious about getting a bike from Halfords having always built up my own bikes for the last 30 years. But its was such a good price

They actually did a very good job on the build had no problems in the past 14 months...

I've also used the hybrid pro and found it to be fantastic especially the gearing. I'd look hard at this and ask whether you really need the Ltd. The extra carbon may be a little lighter but compared with what you had for dinner/what you're wearing i'd doubt you'd notice the difference.... just a thought....

Hi,

I got a Boardman Hybrid Team (middle of the range at the time) in Jan this year on the CTW scheme and it is a great bike. I didn't want an out and out road bike and it was the perfect compromise.

My personal experience with my Halfords branch (Altrincham, Cheshire) was really good and the setup of the bike was fine (although I did check everything!). Some people will have had bad experiences with particular branches of Halfords so best to check, but the spec and components on the bike are very good.

Cheers, Griff

Thanks Guys,

I just thought as I was only paying 1/2 of th extra cost for the Ltd, I might as well!

I will think it over.
