Hi all,
My work is doing the cycle to work scheme so thought I'd get myself a hardtail for when the full susser isn't necessary, unfortunately I'm limited to halfords.
There's two bikes to pick from the boardman pro 29er or 13 incline delta
Looking at the specs the 13 is the better of the two. the frame lets it down according to reviews.
Has anyone got one??
What would you choose??
Any info/experience on them appreciated

Obviously one is a 29er - but the Boardman is still lighter. The 13 gets a better version of the 11 speed SRAM groupset, but there is little in it really. The forks are very similar - the Revelation gets the newer version (but dumbed down) of the Motion Control damper, whilst the older version in the Reba has adjustable blow off threshold. Little in it.
I'd simply go for whatever felt best in the shop size wise.0 -
Yeah, the 13 is a 27.5 so both different for my current 26" wheeled trek.
Will hopefully try them both out in the shop an see which one 'feels' right0
