Pretty much the same frame I believe and rather annoyingly the removal of the front guard lugs off the fork. £50 cheaper too.

Why have they not put mudguard fixings on the forks yet they have on the back

I have no idea, it's a massive oversight in my opinion especially on a cross bike. The comp has them but not the team.

When you factor in the 10% BC Discount that is a decent winter bike but WHAT THE HELL Boardman mess it up with the lack of mudguard fixings

Just noticed that. That's weird, why did they do that?! The old paint jobs looks better too IMO, stealthier and more understated. What a shame. Surprised and disappointed by Boardman here. Still, at least I won't have new model envy I suppose!

SKS thermoplastics, 35 to somat. Got 35's on now and I doubt anything bigger would fit to be honest. 22 quid at the mo from wiggle.
If frame and fork size are the same as the comp model it fits 37c without much trouble. Im in the middle of fitting sks p45 chromo plastics, depending on tread pattern I will say tyres can prob goto 45c without no mud guards. The sks pretty much takes all the space under the rear bridge/wishbone, you could force a wider one in if you cut a chunk where it goes under the bridge. Not much problems in the front as there is an indent for going under the fork.

They have been recalled - something to do with cracking at one of the welds. It doesnt seem to be the weld cracking more like the cosmetic filler or paint on top

The 2014 CX bikes, dont know if it is both models or just the silver one
Please share if you know anymore, I'm fitting all my ancillaries at the moment- so if there is a recall on the CXs (both Comp and Team) I'm going to hold fire.

I think the Comp model is OK
