Boardman Bikes has changed. A lot. BikeRadar went along to see the Boardman 2016 range launch in London's Shoreditch this week to see the fruits of the brand's labours post-Halfords acquisition.
The bikes are almost unrecognisable, right down to their swish new logo. Boardman's website went live at 5pm on 12 November, redesigned to let customers buy bikes in multiple currencies, and includes a custom bike configuration tool – now you can choose any carbon frameset, size, spec, colours (primary/secondary/branding) and paint finish. In all there are 5,202 different options.

In case that sounds like rather a lot to take in, we've broken down what we reckon to be the pick of the new Boardman stable. Click through the gallery above for more of the range highlights.
SLR Endurance Disc Titanium 9.2
In a radical departure for Boardman, the new titanium SLR looks simply stunning, and it's a wishlist of modern road cycling hardware trends. It blends polished Ti with etched logos and a sumptuous blue-fade paint scheme, while the all-new carbon fork features a 15mm thru-axle and the frame has a 12mm thru-axle at the rear.
