    Maybe Halfords where you got your Boardman bike do these? They do Topeak stuff and I'm sure I've seem them in my local store or check out on line. You could at least try it against the bike for size and then order from Ribble if the price was lower. Halfords might be doing some BHol offers so you might get it cheaper still.

    Think how stupid the average person is.......
    half of them are even more stupid than you first thought.

    For what its worth, I had one and got rid of it. They dont hold much compared to the weight of the rack. Should fit the Comp though as Topeak provide spacers for different dia seat posts. I reckon tht a standard rack is better if you must carry lots of goodies (could be made to fit a Boardman Comp but not ideal). I found it better to trim down the goodies to fit into a largish seat pack. A wide necked bottle also holds quite la ot of tools etc (obviously means you need to have two bottles.
