I've just reserved a Boardman SLR 8.9c as Halfords are doing £150 off it atm. Can I use the British Cycling 10% as well as the £150 off?

Not sure, but make sure you pay with gift vouchers that you purchase with a 10% discount.

Im sure they've stopped giving the BC discount on sale items.

I've found staff generally don't care, I'd advice to product the printed voucher at the last minute, and don't ask if it can be used, just "oh I have the British Cycling discount too".

The terms are contradictory though, the BC website says:

• Discount cannot be used in conjunction with other instore promotions. <-- implies store-only offers though, eg. manager's specials
• Discount not applicable on sale items. <-- pretty straightforward and would imply it doesn't apply to anything discounted

But the printed voucher says:

"It can be used in conjunction with products on offer through national campaigns but can not be used in conjunction with other offers such as an individual store promotion"

"National campaign" is a little vague. If read as a whole sentence it implies that any items discounted nationally are valid, but discounted in that store only are not, which makes sense.

Thanks guys. Just found out my employer does cycle to work so I’ve raised a voucher request, it works out even cheaper so money left over to fit some better brake pads and upgrade the wheels smile
