Bonjon Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 Might have to pop to Halfords later and have a closer look, the Cycle to work scheme does reduce Halfords costs to just below the actual cost elsewhere so it does make some savings.

Bonjon Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 What about the Juicy 3's for the brakes ive heard these aren't too great? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ sheffield Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 What about the Juicy 3's for the brakes ive heard these aren't too great? Avid juicy's will easily outclass those Tektra brakes on the Carrera. A lot of it is how they are set up too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neeeeeeeeeek Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Don't get bogged down in the technical specs of everything, it won't help. The Boardman will be a better bike, it's quite a lot more expensive for a reason. Generally with bikes you get what you pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonjon Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 Right I think I will settle with this one for the sum of £33p/m for 12 months. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_777775_langId_-1_categoryId_165499 Thanks for the advice guys.

neeeeeeeeeek Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Good choice. Can I be the first to offer you £50 for it when after 3 months you realise you have only been on it once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neeeeeeeeeek Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Also take note of the serial number and get a good D-Lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
