I needed a new hobby after given up car trackdays(too expensive) so thought I'd give the MTB world a try so bought an entry level bike to see if i enjoy it.......I must say that with this weather we are having at present i really am really enjoying it.

I've replaced a few parts to try an individualise it in the way of.........

Nukeproof Saddle
Nukeproof Stem
Nukeproof Pedals
Nuke Proof Seat Post Clamp
FSA V-Drive Low Rise Bars
Carbon Seat Post

I also have some XT's ready to be fitted to replace the Avid DB1's.

A few pics from my ride today..

Here is the Wife's Cannondale Trail 6 29er. She has yet to give it a proper ride as yet but in the mean time I've also swapped out some parts for upgraded items..

Replaced the Suntour XCT's for Rockshox XC30's
Raceface Handle bars
White Answer Stem
White Funn Lock-on grips.

    I like what you have done with the Boardman - how are the Nukeproof Electron pedals?

    To be honest i can only compare them against the stock Wellgo's that came with the bike, they are lighter, look better and give a better grip so its a win from me.. :D
