Is it true??

My mate told me yesterday…if it is, then Chapeau to Chris, a good bit of business, will allow him to do whatever he likes now, and regardless of Halfords reputation, they WONT want it to bust having laid out so much will they..

    Yup its true, apparently in order to help develop Boardman going forward. Chris is still head of design

    I think his involvement in the brand is more than ever before. And the investment lets him do things for the bikes that they didnt have the money for before.

    £10m for the three main people behind the company.

    Nothing like current, up to date news, is there.

    Only 10m for them, that is rather disappointing given the scope of work for them, and the fact that Halfords sells their bikes. Vastly undervalued IMO at first glance, although I haven't seen the balance sheets to check.

    Probably best to read the balance sheet before making such statements.
