The combination of Chris systematic and technologically driven innovations and Halfords respected place in the bike and car distribution chain has seen Boardman Bikes go from strength to strength. Boardman Bikes are available from their website but are also exclusively sold via the Halfords chain. To further promote the partnership, Halfords have formed and sponsored a pro-cycle team, Team Halfords Bikehut. To cater for all level of cyclist, from beginner through to pro and club riders, a comprehensive range of road bikes have been introduced. Factory-fitted with a choice of quality equipment, all Boardman Bikes are built to a high standard. The Boardman Pro Carbon RP is the top of the road bike range. Fitted with an ultra light unidirectional T800 carbon fibre monocoque frame and an SRAM Red 20 speed group set, the Pro Carbon RP is an impressive machine. As standard, Zipp 404 carbon wheels are fitted, and a choice of clincher or tubular rims are available. The Pro Carbon RP is finished with a Ritchey WCS kit, including a Ritchey carbon seat post. The next bike in the range is the Boardman Pro Carbon which has the same ultra light carbon frame as the Pro Carbon RP, but comes fitted with an SRAM S900 carbon fibre chain set, SRAM force gearing and Ritchey WCS wheels with a sealed bearing cartridge. The Pro Carbon bike's finishing kit is the Ritchey WCS Pro. Other bikes in the range include the Boardman Team, Boardman Carbon, Boardman Comp and Boardman Comp SC road models.
