I love my cx team...mines is the older version...really solid bike...I made a few changes swapped the wheels out for hand builts and changed the front mech to a 105

Finding the apex gears odd, but fancied a change for the sake of it

Really light for a CX, good value too with the deals on

Have you previously used shimano?...The double tap sram uses does take a bit of getting used to...apex is a bit clunky tbh but it does the job

very nice used to have the earlier model . I just could not get on with compact gearing so went a triple (old legs)..

 

[david k]

Nice, I'd prefer a triple but not many of them about, maybe a in a few years I'll change it but it's fine for now

yeh I'm used to ultegra, but will get used to it

Just ned to loosen brakes

My road bike is ultegra....apex will never be as smooth as ultegra been thinking about changing the whole lot out to 105 on the boardman tbh....The bb5s can be a nightmare lots of folks have switched to bb7s. ..I've never really had any issues with mine

not really I bought it from a cyclechater it came with the bottle,s+ cages and gaurds ... no way I would put carbon gages on an alu bike there £35 each..

 

[burndust]

Yeah kinda pricey

 

[Saluki]

Nice bike. I looked at one of those before finding the CX I bought, second hand.

Hi There,can't
Can I ask which mudguards you have fitted? I've just picked my new cx team up but can't seem to find mudguards which will fit the carbon forks :-(
