First post!
Been looking for information on the Boardman CX Teasm for a while, took me ages to find this. I purchased one 4 weeks ago, great bike. I have one question for owners, how is your front mech changer? The force that mine requires to shift from little to big ring is enormous, it takes all my strength to shift it. The spec says it should be an Apex from mech, all mine says on it is Microshift, is this correct?
I have tried adjusting the mech, it all looks OK but is still really stiff, I reckon some riders wouldn't even be able to shift it. Just wanted some feedback before I approach Halfords for an answer.
Thanks guys.
