<first world problem>
so, I've been looking at a Cotic Solaris as a hardtail for long jaunts, winter mudplugging and a spot of bikepacking.
Thing is, I've already got a Rocky Mountain Blizzard that is in perfectly good condition (bit of a dent in the top tube, but nothing that a steel frame can't cope with) which I hardly ever ride.
Should I 'upgrade' to clown wheels and shiny paint, or not bother?

Do it.
Bah, I got a small pay rise and used that to justify a Coptic before
Then I decided a needed a whole new Slx drivetrain..
£700+ justified by 6% pay rise.
Just do it.
life is short!
If I asked that question I wouldn't have 10 bikes in the garages. The problem is my Scalpel 29er is such a nice bike I haven't ridden anything else.
I know its not as posh but I have just built an inbred 29er for winter and it is great, and REALY CHEAP..........£139 for the frame.
If I asked that question I wouldn't have 10 bikes in the garages.
I have 10 bikes in my garage... and there are 2 of them that I'm thinking of replacing*; the blizzard (replace with solaris??) and my 575 (replace with a blur TRc??)... seems extravagant (probably because it is!), hence the question 🙂

* by replace, I mean "buy another bike that does the same job, but don't actually get rid of the old one, just move it to a different part of the garage"
I recently bought a new bike i didnt need and it felt good so crack on 🙂
