Aerodynamic Racing The Air 9.4 is a perfect example of a world-class frameset and components working in harmony. The AiR frame and fork profiles have been designed with the deep section aero cboardman AiR wheelset, and the integration of full internal cable routing, BB30 and tapered steerer make a further tangible impact on performance.
Highlights; - New AiR Aerodynamic Racing frame, fork and seatpost - Full high modulus carbon fibre monocoque construction - Wind tunnel developed tube profiles - Down tube, seat tube and seatpost shaped for maximized airflow and reduced wind resistance in real world head and cross wind conditions - Forks and seat stays have flat inside and curved outside surfaces for enhanced airflow interaction between the frame and wheel. This is further enhanced when using deep section wheels - Mould design incorporates one piece BB30 bottom bracket and optimized oversize box section chainstays with steep taper at dropout for maximized power transfer and strength - Full internal cable routing for further airflow enhancement and clean lines - Stable, predictable geometry to cope will all race situations - Full carbon fork with tapered fork steerer for increased stiffness and steering precision

Boardman AiR/9.4 reviews:
Aero Worship 4/5 Stars "... an inspirationally efficient all-rounder." "... the Boardman is definitely on the smoother, more compliant side of the aero bike spectrum, but the longer you ride, the more that becomes a bonus." Source: Cycling Plus
Aero Road Bikes "Cleanly efficient, comfortable yet impressively responsive bike, and one of the best performance per pound ratios we've ever ridden." "Significantly for triathletes facing a long bike leg followed by a long run afterwards, the AiR 9.4 is extremely comfortable for an aero bike." Source: Triathlon Plus
Ridden & Rated: Aero Bike Grouptest 9/10 - Best on test "...so, that leaves the ride. There is a clear winner in this regard. In terms of their geometry, they are very similar, but the Boardman feels far more balanced." "It appears that the AiR/9.4 is a far better performer with a different range of wheels than the CR1, boding well for all round usability." "Boardman has quickly gained a reputation for exceptional specification at a given price point and the AiR/9.4 excels in this department." "...overall, Boardman's AiR/9.4 is too good an all-rounder to be pipped to this particular post." Source: Cycling Weekly
"The Boardman is definitely a racing machine; it’s light, snappy and has a great all-around feel to it. The frame felt plenty stiff under power yet didn’t feel too harsh given its oversized aerodynamic design." "In closing, Boardman has created a fantastic technically advanced race bike that can be raced by anyone, and it has been proven by one of the top American teams, UnitedHealthcare, throughout the 2011 season."
