Truthfully not found anything that I like to ride better than the one I already have 'Kona Hei Hei Supreme'.

Only other bike I've ridden that came close was a Cannondale rize.

Or someone to buy her specialized myka FSR

Nope, I'm struggling at the moment, just not that fussed. Certainly no MTBs. I'd not say no to a Dogma with Di2, but not go as far as lusting!

This:

or this, the welding on every moots frame I've seen has been immaculate:

But I'm actually on the look out for a 2nd hand 120mm travel frame, as that is all the budget allows.

My lust list is growing divergently.
Can neither decide which to get, nor justify getting it, based on what I typically ride.

Really ought to offload 2 ye olde worlde bikes. Then I'll have store room space that'll need filling 🙂

Liteville 301 is one of the top entries on the lust list though.

Ibis Tranny SS in green. Absolutely don't need it, just like the look of the thing.

Custom 29er.

But can't decide between a DIY Dave Yates style course with steel, or the cheeper option of getting someone else to build it in Ti over in Russia/China.

That Moots is lovely though!

I have 4 bikes in storage, the only one that I have access to is my road bike which is suffering due to neglect and the winter.

I really want a blue BFe. I have virtually everything needed for the build I just need to raise enough money for the frame and a back wheel. Hopefully I will have it by the end of next month.

A modern take on an old steel road classic, like the Condor Paris Galibier or a Bob Jackson Vulcan.

Just got a s/h road Ti. And my race bike is being rebuilt with new SRAM and wheels. The crosser could do with a spruce up. Otherwise not lusting after anything.

Finally very happy with my suspension choice of bike after years of owning loads of different ones. Wouldn't mind a Brodie Holeshot or an Ibis Tranny or something like that as my hardtail to replace the current Chameleon, but it so rarely gets used I could never justify it.

That Brodie does look nice though...

Thinking of getting Mercian to build me a 29er based on a Cielo geometry. May come to my senses....

That Moots is an absolute work of art! It may actually be too nice. You'd feel guilty about coating it in filth

Aye that Brodie does look nice.

Currently I could do with a short travel FS.

If cost wasn't an issue then I'd like a Nicolai AC29er with custom geo (to slacken off the HA), full ano, extra love and a Vip'r.

But I suspect I'll be waiting to see what the shorter travel droplink Cotics turn out (esp as it would give me time to find some cash...).

Waiting (4 weeks!) in anticipation for my Solaris though 🙂

Nothign really, but I do know that my LBS has a Niner Air Carbon in the stock room.

Must not be tempted by carbon lovliness & lightness 😆

Saying that I am wondering if changing my Heluis CC for a Helius AC would be an idea, but then again probably not.
