anyone else waiting for a new shiny thing!
Nope. But that looks bloody lovely.
That does look very nice!
That looks nice!
I got excited enough waiting for a new helmet and pump to turn up yesterday.
And then today I had a pedestal fan turn-up (turbo trainer duties) and this evening I need to remember to pick up one of those sweat things for using on the bike while on the turbo trainer from Halfords.
Yep, just ordered a genesis fortitude adventure this morning, second new bike this year. The joys of going carless so far have no bounds.
Yup, ordered a 2014 zesty... now have to wait for december 🙁
That looks nice though.
Very tasty.
Kona are coming out with some really nice looking bikes these days.
And, erm, not exactly waiting for a new bike but I wouldn't bet against a disc-equipped CX bike turning up in my garage at some point.
That's the first full sus kona I've ever liked the look of. And it looks great!
Not waiting for a new bike per se, but I'm procrastinating sat in the sunshine recovering from food poisoning whilst I muster the energy to build a frame up into a configuration I've not done before!
I'm ALWAYS waiting for a new bike 😉
Umm...really don't mean to rain on your parade, but it looks a bit like a girls bike...I think it's the really low top tube!
Like you, OP, I am/was getting my first new bike in a while.
I had been waiting several weeks for it to get here, and it finally arrived this week, but unfortunately it has 'issues'. Next batch are not in the country for 6-ish weeks.
I am somewhat annoyed.
Just looked at the spec of that kona. 2700quid gets you deore brakes.. wow. I know they are good, but wow.
Oh my, that looks nice. What model is it?
Nice! Hope the wheels are strong 😉

Not new as such but my warranty replacement road frame should be with me next week which is quite exciting.
I have something that looks like;

sat in the garage waiting to be built up.
To say I'm excited is an understatement. I keep going in there and looking at the details on it.
Lovely wwaswas. Probably the only frame that could tempt me away from my Nicolai!
[i]thanks to HMRC [/i] I have bugger all chance of another bike this year 🙁
*Raises hand*
Lapierre Spicy Team here
in the same postion thanks to overpaying tax got a VERY nice cheque and payed no tax this month so off tomorrow to take a look at a prospective new bike (orange five 650b) 😀
Don't worry I'll be swapping the brakes over for some race evo m4s 1st thing !
Santa Cruz Tallboy on way....carbon full kashima and mavic SLR's's + full XTR and reverb......next meal will be 2015
Ah jeez..... Another 6 weeks of Jamie going on about his new bike he's getting 😥
I am 8)
anyone else waiting for a new shiny thing!
I *was* waiting for a shiny new thing but it arrived today so I'm no longer waiting. 🙂
Well actually, it's just a frame, still need to get all the bits for it so it'll be another month at least before it's ready to ride... 🙁
Waiting on a Santa Cruz Solo to be delivered.
Not waiting for a complete bike, just one of the new Swift framesets.
The problem is that the longer I wait for it, the more I'm spending on new bits for the build so it's pretty much gonna be a new bike 😀
Waiting for 2 actually!
Though both road bikes, and one of them won't be ridden until spring now anyway...
Still waiting for a Rocket.
Sad face.
I've been waiting for 2 years to have enough money for a nicolai
🙁

Sorry.
I was all ready for a great unveiling so everyone could move on with their lives, but it turns out the world's biggest bike manufacturer had an off day.
I'm waiting for the Knolly warden. 150mm 650B full suss goodness!
Im waiting for a road frame to be delivered, does that count? Website says 10 working days, rang them on the 9th, and was told no way, its at least 15 working days
Right now i'm trying to find something better than this, which i've been borrowing for the last 3 weeks. So far, I haven't found anything.
So i'll be waiting for one of these probably...

Nope. But that looks bloody lovely.

I am!
The inheritance is getting sorted, and when I have the cash I'm getting fat 😳
Can't wait.....
I had a Kona 153 DL for four days last week man the bike is the best I've ever ridden them short chain stays make the bike feel totally different and miles more fun to ride than all the bikes I've ridden very good choice, my new 134 DL should be here next week 😛
Hobnob, I'm guessing you didn't see this then.... http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/psa-cheap-well-you-know-what-i-mean-new-liteville-301-mk-10-frames
Just checked and on XL left unfortunately . They do come up a bit small though. What size are you.
My new bike is waiting for me 🙁
Yep. Getting a Blur LT2 built up. No pub until the new year and knocking the cigars on the head.
ordered a new 2014 fork, not released yet. 🙁
When did Kona start making pretty bikes?! that's gorgeous!
When did Kona start making pretty bikes?! that's gorgeous!
Late 80's, early 90's I'd say.
Though they did get ugly for a long period probably late 90's early 00's and have only recently started to recover again IMO.
End of next month 😕

Ready for some rigid single-speed mud fun 🙂
The El Mariachi is lovely, just couldn't stretch to it.....
Pick up my new 'B-Spoke' Brompton from Brompton Junction on Thursday. It probably won't excite many of you here though!
I'm waiting for the money to buy another bike. I'm thinking of getting a 456, but not sure if I want to give up the full suss, even though it's only a cheapo btwin one

^^^Meant to add, I'm in exactly the same boat
I'm sort of waiting for a new road bike. Of course, things would move more quickly if I decided what I wanted.
Been told April, and that's for a Giant!
Then I have the horrible experience of trying to sell my current pride and joy and all the ****less morons that come out of the woodwork when selling a second hand bike (whats your lowest price, I can get cheaper elsewhere etc).
Ive been spoilt with a CAADx 105 and a New five pro dont think ill be getting a new bike for a long time 😀
Oh yeh, after much deliberation I ordered maybe the last fortitude singlespeed that I could find at least! 19" which will hopefully suit me, my 17.5" latitude Ti is a bit not the tight side I think.. Whooo, cheers to new toys!
Just waiting for my friend's wife to allow him to buy my road bike, then I can order the Charge Plug I've been hankering after for a while now. My wife thinks this is a good idea!
I've put some money down on a Voodoo Bizango at Halfords. It's there waiting, I just have to find another few hundred quid before they'll let me have it.
YES!!!!! ME ME ME ME ME.
I have a Brompton S6L waiting for me to collect it. I'm just waiting for the bloody cyclesceme voucher to arrive!!!!
