More About The New Boardman MHT 8.6 Mountain Bike
New Shimano Deore 1x Drivetrain
Upgraded from the previous MHT 8.6, the model features the all-new Shimano M4100 Deore 1x10 drivetrain. Thanks to Shimano's Trickle-Down Technology programme this drivetrain has the feel and look of previous SLX and XT ranges and with its 11-46T cassette it has a wide range of gears which will help tackle all terrains. The clutch on the rear derailleur works in tandem with the narrow-wide chainring to improve chain retention whilst a 2-piece crankset gives great power transfer when pedalling
New 29er platform
For the model year the Men's MHT 8.6 moves from a 27.5" to a 29" wheel. This bigger wheel helps the rider to maintain maximum speed with less effort with a smooth and sturdy feel on the trail. The 8.6 features updated geometry too, longer and slacker than the previous model this bike is designed to give confidence inspiring stability.
