Just brought a new boardman cx comp off e bay, still wrapped and boxed. It looks as though all I need do is put on the bars, seat post/saddle,index gears, set up the brakes,put front wheel and hunt around the garage for some pedals. Does this sound about right or am I missing something.

    Pretty much, Just take your time and check every single bolt whether you fit it or not. Look for anything that looks out of the ordinary as you assemble it. Good luck and happy riding

    Bikeit 65, that is a very generous offer, I live in Dudley. I can't see there being I prob with the build. But if your local, it's always good to know other cyclist, as I'm a bit of a soloist.
