After a road ride with a mate on a geared bike, I'm thinking I need to jack my SS bike in for a geared! Are there any good 120mm roadie hub gears?
Time to actually do some riding.
I was, er, have been, or maybe am, very tempted by some of the Santa Cruz ex-demo bike sales ... don't tell the other half though 😉 .. oops, she's probably reading this right now 😆
Another one for something Santa Cruz-esque - Blur LT Carbon would be luuurvely but would mean putting the VT out to pasture. Or not - bigger garage maybe too?
Oh, and something fat (other than what's round my middle) would be fun.
I hope Santa brings some opportunity for a nice sunny ride
I just want to be well enough to ride my new bike 🙁

Currently hankering:
Uppy downy seat post for the Bfe
Brand new Orange Blood or Alpine 160 😈
Summer trip (first time) to Alps
That's all...
I'd like a hardtail with gears... A Dialled PA would be ideal, however I can't really afford one at the moment 🙁 So a new BB (Royce), and a set of those new x-lite carbon forks for my Simple would be fantastic.
I could do with another set of wheels for the existing beast - 819s on a hope rear & whatever Lefty hub I can get hold of most likely, though I like the look of the DT Tricon XM1550s which now come with a Lefty front option (but they are frantically expensive).

A Fat Bike would be: nice, interesting, different, bit of a challenge to make up. Now which one, decisions decisions; Salsa, Surly, Sandman and so many more...........
I would like peace on earth. An end to all suffering - human and animal. Endless snow-covered trails. Penguins in the back yard. And for someone on this forum to occasionally talk about riding rather than more and more expensive parts and bikes and components and cars. Especially the bloody cars. Did Santa really die for this?
I'm with you BWD, I like mountain bikes and I thought this was a mtb forum, I ain't interested in fixies, road bikes or 29 ers!
For benjag
Bike Forum – discussion about bikes and riding

I'm not seeing the word [i]Mountain[/i] in either of those descriptions
A bit more mundane, but after seeing the state my lovely XTR-equipped Ti hardtail is getting into with commuting in this weather, I'm seriously considering a low(ish) cost Alfine hubbed commuter.
DH, you're right, i'm in totally the wrong place.
In a dreamland or i come into a small fortune one of these Ti babys...
