Boardman ADV 8.8 2025 - Gravel Bike
ADV
Adventure is in its name. The Boardman ADV is designed around versatility. It is equally at home exploring new trails and gravel roads, or covering long distances while carrying all your gear. With both the carbon and alloy ranges, you can keep exploring or pin a number on for your next gravel event.
Alloy Frame
The alloy ADV features a smooth welded, 6061 alloy frame with butted tube profiles. To complement its clean aesthetic, the frames, thinned tubes, and carbon fork play their part in reducing weight and improving ride quality. This affordable option is great for commuting or bike-packing with its mounting points, opening the door to versatile gravel riding.
Tubeless Ready
The ADV range features Goodyear's 40mm tubeless and gravel-specific Connector tyres. Designed as a fast-rolling all-terrain tyre, its versatile tread pattern with tightly-spaced centre knobs and aggressive side knobs delivers straight-line momentum whilst retaining grip demands when the direction changes or the route gets technical.
Flared Handlebars
Flared alloy handlebars are featured across the board with the ADV range. The flare allows for an optimal ergonomic hand position on the hoods, more control whilst in the drops making for a comfortable and controlled ride on and off-road. This flare also allows more frontal space to carry additional luggage, such as bar bags
Christmas Delivery
- Not guaranteed for Christmas DeliveryBike offers everything you could need at sub £1000. The microsword does have a habit of jumping off the low gear at high speed, and brakes feel very lacklustre, however the feel of the bike, acceleration, handling, riding position, gear range, is all very good for the price. Considering the next price range is +£3-400 and you still won't get hydraulic brakes, this is a brilliant bike
