Is it Worth it?

[Phil B]

I currently have a 2010 Boardman Comp Hybrid, there is nothing wrong with the bike, but I was wondering if it would be worth upgarding to the Team. I would be getting this on the ctw scheme and Halfords have a deal on this weekend with an additional 10% off bringing the bike down by another £75...any advice?

Which bike do you want?

 

[Phil B]

The Boardman Team Hybrid is the one im looking at

Why not compare specs? Only you can decide if it's worth it, ultimately..

No

 

[cosmicbike]

Of course you should buy it, n+1 and all that..

Seriously, if you're happy with the Comp, and it's reliable, not wearing out, then does it really need a new one?

"there is nothing wrong with the bike, but I was wondering if it would be worth upgarding to....."

I know the feeling....

Get something different, road bike or cx.

 

[Cyclist33]

or a mtb...

 

[vickster]

Not the obvious alternative to a fast hybrid, but yes

Or single speed, even fixed

 

[Cyclist33]

A more obvious "alternative" than a road or CX bike!

 

[vickster]

What for riding on roads? OK

 

[Cyclist33]

Well er, no, but he didn't say anything about that and in terms of having bikes with alternative characters to each other, I stand by my observation!

 

[vickster]

I believe the Boardman hybrids are more road going beasties...I am not sure why you would upgrade from one bike to basically the same bike (they look the same), but each to their own
