Friday, August 3rd, 2012

We’re always getting asked about our “conspicuous” team kit at events. It’s been described by more than one person as looking like an “angry wasp”. So many of our customers love the design, that, thanks to our new sister clothing brand “Phew” we’ve finally got around to producing a version for general sale. More tasteful than the let’s face it, garish team gear but just as cool.

Boardman 20 Year Anniversary – Special Edition TK20 Track Bikes – Pre-Order NOW!

Friday, August 3rd, 2012

In 1992 Chris Boardman announced himself to the world of cycling by winning the 4km Pursuit in Barcelona (the first British Gold medal for 72 years) and simultaneously inspiring the next generation of great British cyclists. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Chris’s success on the track Boardman Bikes has created the Elite Series TK/20 in a Limited Edition of 92 signed bikes.

The TK/20 is a superlight, triple butted alloy frame with track-specific geometry, full aero carbon fork, tapered steerer and stainless steel dropout plates – in addition, the design also allows for brakes to be fitted, making it road as well as track friendly.

“Success on the track in ‘92 was the springboard for my career as a pro rider. Every hour
spent in the velodrome paid back ten fold when I started to ride for a pro tour team. Track cycling might be a specific beast but I wanted to create a bike that could, without
compromise, also be used on the road, so brake compatibility has been designed in. It would certainly make a unique fast-fixie!”

Chris Boardman – R&D Director, Boardman Bikes.

The frame – combined with a great spec including Truvativ Omnium GXP chainset, Fizik Arione saddle and cboardman Carbon/Pro finishing kit – is finished off with Limited Edition graphics featuring gold decals and a metal head badge. The Limited Edition TK/20 is available to order NOW at Bike Science. Preorder now to reserve a piece of history, for September deliver.

Featured Bike :: Boardman Elite Air Road

Wednesday, May 9th, 2012

The latest in our series of blog posts featuring some of the best new bikes at Bike Science for 2012.

Next up, it’s what we believe the be the best all round bike out there. The Boardman Elite AiR Road. No matter what your chosen discipline, the AiR Road can do it all.

What is it?

The Boardman Elite AiR Road is a true all rounder. Light, aero, fast – and in typical Boardman style, great value too. If you need one bike that’ll see you through any sportive, triathlon or time trial this is the choice for you.

What does it cost?

COMPLETE BIKES start from just £1999. Or build a custom machine by starting with the 9.8 AiR FRAME, FORK AND SEATPOST for £1399 HERE

Who’s it for?

The Boardman Elite AiR Road is the bike chosen by Alistair and Jonny Brownlee in their quest for world triathlon domination. The frame takes aerodynamic tube profiles developed for the Air TT Time Trial machine and brings them to a true aero road bike. You won’t see faux “aero” tubes shapes here – this is REAL aerodynamics, developed using the latest CFD techniques and extensively tested in the wind tunnel. This frame is comparable to the best road frames in the world when it comes to handling and response to pedal input, but with the sleek aerodynamics of the best TT frames. If you’re looking for a bike that can be used across all disciplines, this is it. Road racing, sportives, time trials, triathlon – this bike can do it all.

Where can I try one?

The Boardman Elite AiR Road is currently available to view and test at Bike Science BristolBike Science Darlington and Bike Science Tunbridge Wells

Don’t take our word for it!
