The MTX 8.8 W Hybrid Bike is the ideal do-everything bike for those who are looking to take on both rough roads and light trails. To ensure the weight of the bike is kept to a minimum, the frame is made from light, yet strong, aluminium which is coupled with Suntour suspension forks (adjustable for different surfaces) making for a high performing comfortable bike.Quality components such as powerful Shimano hydraulic brakes and the reliable Shimano Deore gears mean that all aspects of the bike combine together to provide a confidence-inspiring ride.With narrower bars, shorter stems and a women’s specific saddle, Boardman Women’s bikes are tailored to the needs of female riders.
The Multi-Terrain Crossover MTX range of front suspension hybrids is incredibly versatile. Lightweight aluminium frames with stable and comfortable riding positions, broad gear ranges, powerful hydraulic disc brakes and short travel suspension forks mean these bikes can handle almost anything. Rough roads, cycle paths and off-road trails are all in a day’s work for an MTX.The 8.9 is the ultimate MTX, with a high level specification offering outstanding performance across a huge variety of terrains. Key upgrades to the drivetrain, brakes and fork build on the capability of the 8.8, taking it to the next level.Using a single chainring, Shimano Deore 1X11 gears offer a wide range of ratios, but without the complexity of a front derailleur to worry about. With only one gear shifter, simply change up or down with one hand to suit the gradient or surface. A narrow-wide tooth profile on the chainring teeth, and a clutch mechanism in the rear derailleur keep the chain taut and on the chainring, even on rough ground.Shimano MT400 hydraulic disc brakes offer outstanding braking power and modulation, which combine with the grippy and Kevlar puncture protected Schwalbe Tyrago 35mm tyres to keep you in control on all sorts of surfaces. The Suntour NCX-E fork uses an adjustable air spring, a lightweight alloy construction and an option to lock the suspension out for smooth surfaces to give 63mm of highly controlled travel. A thru axle locks the wheel tightly into the fork, increasing stiffness and improving handling precision, whilst also ensuring the disc rotor is perfectly aligned.Like all the Mutli-Terrain Crossover range, the MTX 8.9 has mounts for mudguards and a pannier rack, making it flexible for year round leisure riding and commuting.Key Features:Lightweight triple-butted aluminium frame with comfortable ride position,Simple and smooth shifting 1X11 Shimano Deore gears,Light weight air spring suspension fork with thru-axle gives great comfort and control,35mm Schwalbe Tyrago puncture-resistant tyres.
The SLR 8.6 is our entry-level road bike – but that’s not to say that it’s a basic machine. With a hidden weld aluminium frame, a full carbon fork, and Shimano’s slick-shifting Claris gears, this is a bike which delivers market-leading performance without breaking the bank.The 6061 alloy frame is triple-butted which ensures a stiff and efficient ride without adding weight. With dropped seat stays and the carbon fork, there’s still plenty of comfort on offer too. Complementing the light-weight frame and fork, a compact 50-34 tooth chainset and 11-32 tooth cassette give an easy bottom gear for climbing, and the high-quality Vittoria Zaffiro tyres balance grip, rolling resistance and puncture protection when heading down the other side.Deep drop Tektro brakes allow clearance for up to 28mm* tyres, and mudguard and pannier rack mounts add practicality and year-round usability.Contact Points:Working with Chris Boardman, data from hundreds of bike fits and insight from bike fit experts, we have made simple changes to the contact points of the SLR range. Using advanced pressure mapping and real-world testing we’ve shown that the Boardman SLR saddle will provide long-ride comfort for the majority of people. Bar width and crank length are also reduced vs previous bikes to make sure they are suited to the fit needs of real cyclists, not just based on old traditions. These changes also reduce the rider’s frontal area, which has been wind tunnel tested to reduce drag, meaning less effort required for the same speed.Key Features:Lightweight Triple-Butted Aluminium frame and full carbon fork offer a fast but comfortable ride,Shimano Claris 8 speed shifters and derailleurs give reliable and smooth gear changes,A compact 50/34 chainset and 11-32 cassette gives a wide spread of gears for climbing and descending,Vittoria Zaffiro tyres deliver great puncture protection, grip and low rolling resistance Boardman SLR Wheels are tubeless-ready, so can be easily upgraded to run without tubes,Mudguard and pannier rack mounts offer an extra dose of year-round practicality. ,*tyre clearance is 25mm with mudguards fitted..

The original SLR 8.9 Carbon was our most popular carbon road bike, and for good reason. We think the light, stiff and comfortable carbon frame designed with aerodynamic tube profiles and features is a perfect platform for all-round road riding, and the reviewers agreed with us. For most bike brands, 4.5 out of 5 reviews and comments like “Blimey, what a corker!” (road.cc) would be a reason to kick back and celebrate a job well done. However, at Boardman, we are always looking for ways we can push our bikes to the next level, and this is what we have done for the new SLR 8.9 Carbon.One of the only criticisms we could level at the old bike was the 10 speed gears – functional, but a little heavy and unrefined. With that in mind, we’ve upgraded the shifting to Shimano’s 11 speed R7000 105. Offering smooth gear changes, reduced weight, ergonomic design and all the trickle-down technology from Shimano’s flagship Dura-Ace groupset, 105 is a fantastic performer.Not only have we upgraded the bike’s gearing – but we’ve also worked with expert bike fitters to ensure the touchpoints on the bike are going to suit riders even better than before.FRAMESET:The new SLR 8.9c frame and fork use the same aerodynamic design and geometry as the top of the range SLR 9.6 and so delivers outstanding performance. The dropped seat stays and an integrated seat clamp help reduce drag and combine with carefully designed carbon fibre layup to deliver all day long comfort. This isn’t achieved at the expense of speed though. Using CFD and wind tunnel testing, our tube profiles deliver a significant aero boost compared to previous frames, and a stiff bottom bracket and light overall weight mean that the bike responds instantly when you put the power down. With clearance for up to 28mm tyres and hidden mudguard mounts, the SLR 8.9 Carbon can turn its hand to any type of road riding, whatever the weather.CONTACT POINTS:Working with Chris Boardman, data from hundreds of bike fits and insight from bike fit experts, we have made simple changes to the contact points of the SLR range.

The SLR 8.9 Disc brings the fantastic ride quality and aerodynamic performance of the SLR 9 Series bikes down to an even more affordable price point. Using the same geometry and frame profiles as the SLR 9 Series, but with our C7 carbon fibre, the SLR 8.9 Disc is a fast and comfortable all-rounder, with Shimano’s excellent 105 hydraulic groupset.At the heart of the bike is a light and efficient C7 carbon frame with tube profiles developed in CFD and the Wind Tunnel to keep aerodynamic drag to the minimum. This means going faster for the same effort, what’s not to like? We haven’t forgotten about comfort too, it’s an important part of enjoying the ride, and a comfortable rider is a faster one. Dropped seat stays and a slim-bladed carbon fork help absorb bumps and road buzz, but a tapered head tube and fork steerer keep handling sharp and precise.Shimano’s R7020 105 Hydraulic groupset delivers smooth and quiet gear shifting, with an excellent range of gears courtesy of the 50-34t compact 105 chainset and 11-30t cassette. This is enough range for super-steep climbs and fast descents alike. This is where the hydraulic disc brakes come into their own, with much greater braking power and control vs a rim braked bike. Tyres are also vitally important for control, and 28mm Vittoria Rubino Pro tyres with Graphene 2.0 compound offer great grip and puncture resistance while rolling quickly too.CONTACT POINTS:Working with Chris Boardman, data from hundreds of bike fits and insight from bike fit experts, we have made simple changes to the contact points of the SLR range.

The SLR range is the perfect all-around road platform. They feature a lightweight frame design and carbon lay up which offers a fantastic blend of power transfer and comfort and has been aero-optimised to deliver race-winning speed. This is combined with a geometry that encourages long days of exploration without sitting up tall in the wind.The SLR 9.4 adds SRAM's new Rival eTap AXS 12 speed wireless shifting to our high-modulus C10 Carbon frameset, bringing outstanding shifting performance to a new, lower price point.FRAMESET:In most situations, aerodynamic drag limits a rider’s speed rather than fighting gravity. The SLR frameset is optimised for aerodynamic performance without adding weight or compromising the ride quality. Our wind-tunnel proven tube profiles minimise the separation of airflow, resulting in lower aerodynamic drag.The SLR’s geometry strikes a balance between a long and low race position and an upright, endurance set up. The frame itself has been designed with comfort in mind; thin, dropped seat stays and a slim-legged fork absorb road imperfections without compromising on the lateral stiffness required to corner quickly and confidently.The SLR focuses on efficiency. Using our C10 carbon fibre blend, high-modulus fibres are used in key areas to increase the strength to weight ratio. Deep, box-section chainstays, an oversized bottom bracket and dropped seat stays combine in a compact, stiff rear triangle, maximising power transfer.With 28mm tyres and hidden mudguard mounts, the SLR 9 Series bikes are also practical for year-round riding too.COMPONENTS:SRAM's new Rival eTap AXS is the star of the show on the SLR 9.4. Using the same wireless shifting technology and 12 speeds as their pro-level Red groupset, gear changes are precise and consistent, all at the push of a button. With no shift cables to worry about, there's minimal maintenance to do, meaning shifting stays perfect all year round.Gear ratios are different to traditional road bikes because of the huge range offered by the 10-30t cassette. The 10t cog with smaller 46/33t chainrings gives a larger top gear and smaller bottom gear vs a compact 50/34t chainset. All this range comes with smaller jumps between gears too because of the extra 12th gear. With powerful hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm front and 140mm rear rotors, stopping is easy in all weather conditions too.Battery life is around 60 hours of riding, and recharge time is only an hour. If you do forget to charge up, you can swap the batteries between the front and rear derailleurs to get you back home easily.Wheels and tyres make a huge difference to how a bike feels to ride, and Alexrims RXD3 wheels with Vittoria Rubino Pro 28mm tyres are another highlight on the 9.4. The wheels use 30mm deep rims with 19mm internal width to support the Graphene 2.0 infused tyres, offering a great blend of low weight, fast acceleration, grip and aerodynamic performance. The wheels weigh only 1550g and are tubeless-ready if you want to upgrade down the line.CONTACT POINTS:Working with Chris Boardman, data from hundreds of bike fits and insight from bike fit experts, we have made simple changes to the contact points of the SLR range.
