Strength:

The stiff frame transfers all the power to forward motion and this bike is very stable. Rides well in windy conditions and is very light.

Weakness:

None

I have had the Boardman Air 9.8 2014 Model for less than one month and my longest ride has been 65km. I am very pleased with the ride.The weight of my bike is 7.4kg with a Ultegra Groupset and Dura Ace C24 wheels with continental GP 4000s tyres. My other bike is a Specialized Roubaix and I must admit the Boardman is my bike of choice now. It goes fast when you put the power down. It looks stunning as well. My Riding is mostly on flat windy roads in Melbourne Australia but I will find some mountains to ride and update this review.
