Are any of the various Boardman bikes (road, MTB and hybrid) able to be fitted with mudguards, racks, panniers etc? The luggage options are lower priority, but it would be great if they can take mudguards to avoid the old rain strip up the back!

Thanks :).

    All except the road bikes I'd imagine

    Oscar,

    Thanks for the input :).

    Does anyone have a definitive answer on this?

    The Boardman site's FAQs section says this:

    Can I fit mudguards?
    Yes, standard full length mudguards can be fitted on all Hybrid bikes and on the Road Comp SC, Race guard style mudguards can be fitted on all other road bikes.

    The road bikes definately don't have eyelets for panniers / mudguards, nor do the MTB's.

    But, the Hybrids DO have eyelets. :D

    You could use a seatpost-mount rear mudguard on any, of course.

    Thanks for that, I should have looked there first :).
