After putting on some poundage after Christmas I have decided to get myself a bike. I have done some reading and think I will be going Hybrid, next question is what one?
Would like to go to Halfords as I would be taking out a finance plan so was looking at Carrera or Boardman £500 max. After what I had read on here Boardman seems the better of the 2 so I have narrowed it down to these 2.

I want the forks as I will probably be doing more off road than on road cycling although this may change down the line. The boardman seem to have a locking facility which is appealing as well.
I don't know enough about bikes to decide if the extra £80 is worth it for the comp?
Any help would be appreciated.
