Just bought this today, Boardman Comp Hardtail
Decided to get a bike to get fit and something to do with my time off, try and get into mountain biking a bit

Fits in the back of the ibiza with front wheel off and seats flat
How does everyone else transport their bikes?

Evans cycles will be best for new gear I'd guess.

Looks a nice bike. I use a bike rack to transport mine. Only a cheap universal one. Pretty decent though - had it ages.

Universal bike racks are only small.. Take it off and put it in the boot when riding.

What about seats? Standard one is awful and would like a bit of comfort

Well iv just been to pick my new one up, had no choice but to go in the convertible, what a bastard that was to squeeze in! Had to take both wheels off and even then we had to put the roof down to fit it in then close it back down
