Hi guys,
Looking to buy a new road bike for weekend rides and commuting to university from the center of town. I have been looking high and low and doing as much research as possible, coming to the conclusion that the Boardman range of bikes offer better bang for buck than their rivals Trek and Specialized at the same price point.
Why is their such a negative aura surrounding Boardman bikes? Is there any reason why getting a 105 groupset, carbon forks and seatpost, mavic akisum rims etc for sub £800 is a BAD idea? Do they have a poor customer service reputation? I have dealt with Evans in the past and their service is next to none, so if there is a reason why I shouldn't go for the Boardman I will get my bike from them as I KNOW they will give me a service that is next to none.
Regards, Brad
