The heart of the ADV 9.2 Carbon is its 990-gram C10 carbon frame and 420-gram carbon fork. Its neutral 71.5-degree head angle delivers predictable handling on and off the road. The frame also boasts hidden mounts for full-length mudguards, fixings for a pannier rack, dropper post routing, and bottle and storage fixings on the top tube, seat tube, and downtube.

The Boardman ADV 9.2 Carbon benefits from SRAM's game-changing wireless XPLR Apex groupset. With a single chainring up front and an intuitive gear selection system at your fingertips, you can focus on the road, path, track, trail, climb, or descent in front of you rather than worrying about what gear you're in. SRAM's 11-44 tooth 12-speed cassette delivers 2x range in a 1x package! It features PowerGlide II technology that's more reliable, more durable, and performs better thanks to its tooth profile and shift ramp design.

The ADV 9.2 features the Goodyear Connector tyre with its Ultimate Tubeless Complete™ technology. This version of the Connector features the same versatile tread pattern as the standard tyre but with the additional benefit of an internal multi-compound material layer, allowing for improved air retention and additional puncture and cut protection. Reliable and robust adventure-specific Boardman ADV wheels feature 12mm through axle hubs laced with Sapim Race spokes onto tubeless-ready alloy rims with a 22mm internal width.

Flared alloy handlebars allow for an optimal ergonomic hand position on the hoods, more control whilst in the drops, and facilitate more frontal space to carry additional luggage. Prologo's Akero AGX saddle has been developed specifically for the rigours of gravel and adventure riding. Its T-shaped profile and supportive padding support the sit bones, while its central channel helps to reduce numbness by relieving pressure on sensitive tissues.
