So seriously considering replacing my last CX bike and wonder if anyone has seen and good deals out there. Currently seen a Genesis CDA 20 for £600 that's tempting.

Halfords have the Boardman CX for £800 (£200 off) at the moment. Can get BC discount on top of that if you are a member

As above, bought one last week, no mediums left on the boardman website though but halfords still seem to have stock.

Also £75 accesories deal may be available if you ask.

Oh and I can buy halfords vouchers with 11.5% off so cost me £637 🙂

As above, I might end up buying a CX Team for ~£650 (BC discount and discounted vouchers), subject to what my lower back makes of tomorrow's test ride.

The bike looks pretty good, the only thing I'm not sure about and would like to resolve with a positive answer is tyre clearance for 38c tyres, it looks very close either way (especially at the rear).

The Pinnacle Arkose X 2017 has acres of room for 45c tyres, but even with a banger trade-in and discounted vouchers, it would be something like ~£750, down from £900.

How did you manage to get a test ride? Or is it round the shop floor only? Halfords staff aren't allowed to offer test rides on bikes.

They are putting a large on the display turbo trainer for me to hammer for ~45mins.

Gratuitous promo of my Boardman CXR9.0 in the classifieds: Full Sram Force carbon 11 speed groupset, absolutely top notch bike with great reviews (£1600 retail) - I'm after £850 and it's pretty much brand new, only 3 months old and hardly any miles…..having to sell to fund two new MTB's for my kids!!

Promo over…...
