Boardman MTR 8.6 Mountain Bike 2023 - Trail Full Suspension MTB
The Boardman MTR 8.6 Mountain bike uses the same trail-ready geometry as the rest of the range but brings this confidence-inspiring platform down to an affordable price for a quality full-suspension bike.
The 2022 Boardman MTR range of MTBs are designed to be the perfect machines for all-round UK trail riding. Our brand new 29er platform with 145mm travel and trail-ready geometry is paired with 140mm forks and can take on rough and technical trails without being a burden on flatter, flowy sections. Longer reach figures, a slackened 66-degree head angle and custom-tuned, long-stroke RockShox shocks deliver composed handling and supple yet supportive suspension action whilst maintaining agility and pedalling efficiency.
Key highlights:
- Lightweight alloy frame with trail geometry for a confident ride
- Suntour XCR34 forks offer 140mm of travel to keep you in control
- Deluxe Select takes care of the 145mm of rear travel
- Tektro brakes give stopping power no matter the weather
- Wide range Shimano gears give the ratio for any gradient
- Maxxis Minion DHF & DHRII tyres on wide Boardman rims grip without folding in the corners
- Sizes: S, M, L, XL
- Colours: Silver
- The Boardman MTR 8.6 is available with 0% APR finance
The SR Suntour XCR34 fork gives 140mm of travel via an adjustable air spring with stiff 34mm stanchions and a 110mm boost spaced thru-axle ensuring the front wheel stays pointing where you need it to. The rear shock is a RockShox Deluxe Select with our custom-tuned set up controlling 145mm of supple yet supportive travel.
Shimano’s Deore M4100 groupset takes all the technology of its 11 and 12-speed cousins and packages it in a durable 10 speed set of gears with a wide range 11-46t cassette. This gives an easy low gear for long or steep climbs while allowing good top-end speed too. Tektro HD-M285 hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors are powerful stoppers with good modulation.
Even at the entry point in our range, we don’t cut corners on components and the high-quality Maxxis Minion DHF and DHRII tubeless-ready tyres fitted deliver outstanding grip in loose and steep conditions. With a conversion kit, you can enjoy the increased grip and reduced puncture risk that tubeless offers.
Pleas note:
Due to the frame design and bottle cage position, we recommend using a side entry bottle cage and a maximum of a 550ml bottle or smaller.

* Mountain bikes are sized differently to road bikes. Typically, they are sized in inches as the first MTBs were produced in the USA. European brands like Lapierre and Haibike like to use centimetres for all their bikes. The measurements of their mountain bikes doesn’t match their road bikes but are like a simple conversion from the inches measurement. This is why we have included cm measurements in brackets for the Mountain bike column.
Read our bike size guide for more information on sizing.
