Introduction
Hardtails offer mountain biking in its purest form. However, a hardtail's simplicity doesn't mean it shouldn't be ready to shred or be forward-thinking in its design.
The updated Boardman MHT range delivers against both, with more connection to the trail, courtesy of new multi-alloy frame construction and a progressive geometry that places the MHT as a perfect all-rounder for UK trail centres and cross-country routes.
Frame & Fork
A great hardtail frame must be engaging and entertaining without being harsh and unpredictable. To achieve this balancing act, the MHT's frame utilises modern alloy extrusion technology in the stays, with a lighter, stronger 6011 butted aluminium used in the chainstay. This combination adds compliance to the rear triangle, helping the rear wheel to better track the trail, providing more feedback and comfort.
Smooth welds, internal cable routing, clean lines, clearance for 2.5"" tyres-or lots of mud, and a UDH hanger make the MHT a no-nonsense, modern trail bike perfect for those just getting started or those looking to elevate their cycling.
Groupset
Shimano CUES is a new addition to Shimano's componentry range and a direct result of riders asking for a durable, bombproof, yet affordable groupset that delivers outstanding performance across multiple riding styles.
The Shimano CUES 11-speed groupset features a wide 11-50-tooth cassette with LINKGLIDE technology, which sets a new standard for smooth and reliable shifting. Whether attacking the trails, on an all-day epic, or out for a fast XC blast, the 11-speed CUES setup will keep your ride seamless.
Tyres
Maxxis Forekasters are the perfect "fit and forget" choice for the MHT range, designed with UK conditions in mind.
Designed specifically for the demands of modern shorter-travel trail bikes, they feature a versatile tread pattern that rolls faster than Maxxis' Minion tyre while offering more cornering stability and braking performance than their more XC-focused options.
Finishing Kit
Hardtail contact points have to work a little harder than most, helping reduce trail chatter and smooth out vibrations. A wide, supportive Boardman MTB saddle provides a solid platform for seated pedalling, whilst a textured surface allows you to reposition your weight as the trail demands.
Up front, a strong, reliable 6061 alloy bar and short 45mm alloy stem, with Boardman lock-on grips, help ensure the bike goes in the direction you point it.
