I'd be torn between a custom Nicolai Ion, or a Liteville 601 and an S-Works Enduro custom build.

New Turner rfx with pike up front, both shocks tuned by avalanche. By then, the rest of the kit almost doesn't matter.

A carbon Transition Scout if such a thing existed, but seeing as it doesn't, one of these would do. It is likely to change on a regular basis.

Struggle with money no object mountain bikes as I'm a very dull mountain biker.

Road bikes, hmmmm. Enigma, Donhou, Mason.....?

But if I'm only allowed one, a very blinged Shand Stoater

Steel framed, custom geo 29+, 135mm front end, versatile dropouts (ss / rohloff / r-mech).

Hmm, put like that, it's sounding a bit dull really.

Evil Insurgent (and a spare frame for when it breaks).

Reign advanced, carbon wheels, fox 36 and the most stupid expensive SRAM 11sp gruppo.

I'll have to get back to you on brakes, can't think of anything more expensive than zee that I'd want.

🙁

S-Works Epic Burry Stander edition.
There's a couple left in stores in the U.S. But I really can't justify spending £8k+ on a new bike.

Something made to fit me from carbon and unobtanium.

Turner Czar.

More expensive bikes around, but there's just something about Turners...

MNO? New Evil insurgent, ENVE/240s wheelset, XT 11 group, Tech E2 brakes, reverb, Fox EVOL K X2, Fox 36 K RC2 fork.
Not much change from £7K. Quite modest really.

Carbon Patrol
Push 11-6 shock, super light alloy spring
Fox 36 with Avalanche OB cartridge
XTR Di2 1x11 with XX1 cassette
Hope E4 Race brakes
Enve bars & 50mm stem
Reverb Stealth
Spec Romin Pro
DT 240's hubs - EX471 rims - Supercomp spokes (no carbon wheels, keep breaking them)

That will do nicely.

Tough one, it's out of a Shand Stoater, Niner RLT or SC Stigmata. It's not an easy choice.

A fat bike frame, fork, stem/handlebar from English cycles, then just finished with some nice bits and bobs.

Evil Insurgent with Pikes, XTR gears and bits, Easton Haven carbon wheels, Race Face SixC bits and a Reverb.

Priced up a cheapskate version for me to get in 2017. It's nice having just what you want.

Nothing already available.
I'd design my own frame, fork and all the components myself.
I'd purchase the best frame building/fork/component manufacturing facilities in the world and employ only the very best skilled workforce. (paying them handsomely).
I'd also buy shimano and sort their shit out while I was at it.
any subsequent profit would be spent to fund the shimano test facility where I'd be appointed head tester.

You can thank me later you unimaginative people.

I'd get someone to make me a monstrous long travel ti 29er hardtail.

Or... It feels really weird to say a Trek, in a dream bike thread, but carbon Remedy 29. Not a classic thing of lust, but I want to ride it, not **** it.

Not original, but I reckon a full custom Nicolai would be up there.

Or, bung Cy some cash for the drawings and licensing, hire a bloody good welder, and get me a custom Rocket built.

Some sort of insane cargo bike for lugging the kids round.

That silly Mojo Nicolai. Or a Nomad loaded with goodies.

At the minute it'd be that Cervelo R3 disc I seen the other day with SRAM eTap and Zipp 303's. This'll probably change tomorrow.

I love my 5 spot but its now got funny wheels and headtube.

So a new Turner RFX would hit the spot very nicely

Probably a blinged up 5010 or a similarly specced Nomad.

Oh, wait...

I'd get Gary Klein to make me a custom fit version of the Klein Adroit that looked just like the 90s version but had modern tech and geometry, and had suspension forks but somehow looked exactly like the original fork.

Tweak the spec upwards a touch, swap the forks for the green ones and I'd be pretty happy with this.
