Olympics
At the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, Boardman rode a new "super bike" in the 4 km pursuit, the Lotus 108. This incorporated several new features. It was made by Lotus Engineering and called 'the uni-axle'. In the final, he caught his German opponent Jens Lehmann, World Champion from the previous year.
He chose not to defend his title at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, but did win bronze in the Men's 52 km time trial.
