Don't think we will ever get around to selling this one. Even though Mrs F now has & rides her own bike.

My Jones – 2006 and still loving it. Tempted to up-fat the fork,
but the ride was proper sorted way back then. A genuine original.

Not as shiney at the moment. I need to clean it up a bit. Scotchbrite.

In the spirit of N+1 isn't the best bike you've ever owned always the next one?

My 1990 Fisher Celerity. It has been through various guises but I just love it. So much so, that when getting back into mtbing enough to buy 'modern' bikes I went through a few as none had the instant feeling of 'just right' that a Fisher did.

That said, I am mighty close to the buzz it gives with my Solaris too now!

This. I don't miss it because I have a fab MTB and road bike now, but if I could only have [i]one[/i] bike this would be it. When I first bought it, it was crap, but after replacing a few parts I turned it into a "just right" bicycle that was effortless to ride.
