Pulling the Boardman out of its box, I couldn’t help but tap the top tube to check the frame wasn’t carbon. Although it’s alloy, the well-smoothed welds at the top tube, head tube and seatstay junctions have the look of a carbon frame.

That’s given the lie by the fishtails around the bottom bracket welds, but it’s still impressive in a lower priced frame, where large lumps of excess metal are more the norm where the tubes meet.

The SLR 8.8 is our highest spec aluminium road bike, designed for people who want a fast, comfortable bike that’s also practical. Sportives, the daily commute or just riding for fun; the SLR 8.8 has it covered.

A triple-butted aluminium frame with a tapered full carbon fork and high-quality 28mm tyres deliver efficient power transfer, without compromising comfort or precise handling. Hidden welds mean the frame is easily mistaken for carbon at first glance. The bike’s geometry is designed to balance fast riding and longer distance comfort, allowing both a low, stretched position and a more comfortable all-day cruising option.

Highlights:

• Light weight Triple-Butted Aluminium frame and full carbon tapered fork offer a fast and comfortable ride with precise steering
• Shimano Tiagra 10 speed shifters and derailleurs give reliable, fast shifting
• A compact 50/34 chainset and 11-32 cassette gives a wide spread of gears for climbing and descending
• 28mm Vittoria Rubino Graphene 2.0 tyres deliver great grip and comfort with good puncture protection
• Boardman SLR Wheels are tubeless ready, so can be easily upgraded to run without tubes
