Adventure Bikes

Adventure, gravel, all-road, no-road, it's up to you!

Exploring by bike is one of our favourite things to do here at Boardman, and it's the bikes in the ADV range which we reach for when an expedition is in order. These bikes are designed around versatility - equally at home discovering hidden places in the wilderness or covering long distances while carrying all your gear over mixed terrain. This versatility also makes them ideally suited to the grind of the daily commute too.

  • Boardman ADV 9.0 - Cyclist Magazine "Pick a spot, ride there without seeing anyone else, ride home. Beaming smile guaranteed, from the jointly restorative power of exercise and exploration. This is a bike that’s straining at the leash for a weekend away, but for now it’ll simply make your day." Read Article

  • Boardman ADV 8.9 - Cycling Plus All in all, the ADV 8.9 is another excellent bike from the seemingly all-conquering Boardman stable. It's the usual great value that we'd expect from Boardman. Read Article
  • Boardman ADV 8.9 - Road.cc "With its £1,100 price tag it's easy to look at the Boardman and see this as an entry-level model, and if you are a seasoned roadie with good bike handling skills it would be very easy to overlook it for something more advanced (or expensive) when making the transition to gravel. But unless you are racing or are a really fast rider looking for precision handling as your ride passes by in a blur, you really won't be let down by the way the Boardman handles, or rides."

  • Boardman ADV 8.6 - Cycling Plus I would have liked better brakes because it’s about the only criticism I can level at the ADV 8.6, which would make a great commuter-cum-fitness-cum-gravel-riding all-rounder.
