Online 4.5 out of 5Boardman Team Carbon review
Pocket-lint recently undertook a fairly meaty 175km cycle with our bum firmly planted on its fairly comfortable seat. The Boardman Team Carbon was so good, we figured we'd give it a review. So what do you get with a £1499 bike? In most cases, more than...
