Review: Boardman SLR 9.6 Disc - good all-rounder, whether you're taking it racing or just for a spin round the lanes… cycling boardmanbikes
Tyre: Vittoria Corsa Graphene 2.0 - 28mm
The SLR 9.6 is very much a race style road bike, but without too much of an extreme position. Hidden mudguard mounting points give extra versatility as well. How was the bike in terms of height and reach? How did it compare to other bikes of the same stated size? The width of the bottom bracket junction allows for large chainstays and a wider down tube for plenty of stiffness when sprinting or climbing. There is a bit of flex at the fork legs when sprinting very hard, though.Power transfer of the stiff frame and an overall weight that is relatively light means that the SLR feels efficent when you ask it to get a move on.How would you describe the steering? Was it lively neutral or unresponsive?Tell us some more about the handling.
A good all-rounder set of tyres that will cope with winter use as well as being ideal for the summer.Rate the controls for weight:Tell us some more about the controls. Any particularly good or bad components? How would the controls work for larger or smaller riders?
