The ADV 8.6 is built on an Adventure specific, alloy frame for easy handling. It varies from Boardman’s road frames in a number of ways: The geometry is designed with off road riding in mind, and id designed so that the rider sits in a more upright position meaning you can spend hours in the saddle in comfort. The bottom bracket, where the pedal arms meet, is lower which drops the centre of mass, helping the bike to feel extremely stable in all conditions. The ADV 8.6 also features a full carbon, tapered fork which is  wider where the forks meet the frame and  therefore adds steering precision and stability.

Benefitting from Shimano’s trickle-down Technology Programme the R3000 Sora groupset that features on the ADV 8.6 has the responsiveness and feel of a more premium set up. On the ADV 8.6 the 11-32T rear cassette is paired with a sub-compact 48/32T chainset which combine to offer an excellent range of gears, even if you’re loaded up. And when you are carrying extra cargo the Tektro mechanical disc brake will ensure that you come to a fast and controlled stop, no matter the weather.

With Chris Boardman as Chairman of the company, Boardman have a wealth of experience to draw on and are always looking at the fine details when developing bikes. Using data from hundreds of bike fits and insight from bike fit experts, they have made simple changes to the touch points of the bikes. They’ve worked to develop a range of saddles using advanced pressure mapping and real-world testing to make sure any saddle on a Boardman bike is going to suit the majority of people riding it. The ADV models went through exhaustive testing to find the perfect combination of bars and stem to give controlled yet responsive handling meaning you’ll get a confidence inspiring feel whether on your daily commute or hitting the trails.

With a 38mm width, Addix compound and good tread pattern the Schwalbe G-One Allround offers great grip for off-road tracks and dry trail sections but has a low rolling resistance so that speed is not overly compromised on the road. The extra width offered over a traditional road tyre allows for lower tyre pressure and better comfort both on and off road, and Schwalbe’s Raceguard layering reduces the risk of punctures.
