I dunno about the Boardman, but I rode a Croix de Fer a few years ago and really liked it. Would of bought it on the cycle to work, but problems came up in the job and it didn't seem worth it if i might not have a job there soon anymore!

Either way, i suspect you'd have a cracking bike with either. I went for a Kona Jake in the end as I found one nearly new for a bargain on ebay. Its useful being a tiny bloke who fits on lady sized frames! . The lass I bought it off had only ridden in a handful of times. I love those cyclocross bikes

hmmm, I can stretch to tea and biscuits x 4

would that be alright Jake, for you to lend a hand?

I'll check to see if my lift can fit it in the car.

 

[Scarfacexxx08]

[BobCatMax]

I spoke to a friend that I needed that tool back and he said that when he used it on his bb it damaged the bearings, weather he was using it wrong I don't know. So upto you mate

 

[BobCatMax]

hmmm...ok. Have you used them and not damaged anything?

I'll ask to see if they'll fit the BB and put ieverything back in the box

 

[jamabikes]

the crank and bb should already be fitted non? every boxed bike i've built has had them fitted.
