Hey there, I'm between 2 bikes. A Boardman MX Sport for £400 or a Merida Crossway 20-D for £500. Is the £100 extra for the Merida worth it? or just go for the Boardman?
The Boardman can be gotten from Halfords of course and the Merida can be bought from a local cycling shop.
This would be for commuting to work and some bridleway cycling.
I went there on Friday to test the Merida and there was some rubbing with the brakes, I went there on Saturday again and after I tested it 3 times they worked out it was the hydraulic pressure. They said that hydraulic brakes can be a pain but I was still kind of put off that I wasted time there. They said to be back the next day(today) and it should be sorted to buy but I didn't end up going there. I thought to check out Halfords and noticed the Boardman on there.
