Just the one here as well
2006 Fisher Zigurrat - recently vastly improved by putting Rev RL's on the front at 120mm + 20mm maxle.

(ok, techically 2 but one remains unridden for >6 years, just sitting in the cellar...)

Rocky Mountain Vertex 70 – Easton hydro alloy tubing model. Spec apart from a shorter stem and wider bar to improve the handling. Ubber light / stiff / strong. 100mm fox forks are perfect for 90% of UK riding. Does everything I need.

My only issue is I am grinding down some expensive parts on the commute – but then if I didn’t commute on it I wouldn’t ride it that often and I would struggle to justify owning such a high end beast – I think this is a common dilemma.

One bike? A curious concept.

for about 6 or so years my only bike was a kona bear 4(and later 5) inches each end reasonably hefty 34ish lbs, used for comuting, trail centre weekends, alps trips, a couple of megas, uplift days, general pootling around

brilliant bike

but i now have a dedicated dh bike, an am/xc bike and a commuter
lifes just better now, but i have the space and the funds these days to make it happen

still have the frame in the loft, needs new bearings and if i gt round to building it up again probably put the old rockers on and take it back to 100mm travel

I must add tho my one bike has big tyres, thinner tyres , cx-roadie hybrid tyres and some ice spiker so essentially its so much more than just the one bike 😉

Only 1 MTB - Rigid SS 29er Kona Unit for 95% of my riding including cheeky trails on the commute

I also have a classic Peugeot for locking up in town, and a silly-light carbon road bike for when shit gets real.

Considering selling the carbon though...

One SS Inbred (vertical dropout) with 100mm lockout Recons and many different tyres.

Does whatever I make it do. If it doesn't agree, I fall off.

Yup, a Bontrager Race - been riding it for about a decade. Plus a Brompton for getting around.

One bike, Saracen Ariel 140mm FS....not ideal for a long rolling sunday ride, sometimes miss a hardtail but i love Gravity Enduros so the FS it is.

I only have one MTB, a Cotic Soul. I also have a Brompton and a BMX but their wheels are too small to really count as bikes aren't they?
