Hi,
Looking at replacing my hard tail for a hybrid for my 16 mile communte on road and a mile on a track.
Currently work are doing a cycle to work scheme through Halfords and have been and like the look and feel of the Boardman hybrid pro for £799.00.
What other bike can people recommend for about £800 - £900 before i take the plunge.
Thanks in advance

What a shame not to be able to enjoy the joys of a road bike for one solitary mile of track
You want a CX bike mate0 -

Seriously the Boardman should be fine as long as the track isn't too bad . Howver I do think that sort of money for any hybrid is questionable. Spesh Tricross Sport springs to mind as an alternative....Cannondale Supersix / CAAD9 / Boardman 9.0 / Benotto 30000

This poor guy has come on here looking for help from us lot. Right smack bang into the middle of a hybrid hellstorm of hatred, haranging and hysteria.
God help him... Oh, and buy a CX bike. It makes sense. :P
