How many bikes…

Four for me as well…
Hardtail
Sweet 6″ full suspension AM rig
DH sled
Road bike

Recently back up to 5

XC HT
SS MTB
DH FS
Road commuter (needs repairing)
BMX

I also have two spare frames and various forks and wheels

Next build is planned to be a 3spd (sturmey archer) steel framed road bike of some sort…

I sometimes worry that I spend more time assembling bikes than riding the buggers.

Parlee z4 dry race bike
Colonago clx all weather race bike
Principia winter bike
Roadrat for the commute and tooling around on.

Hmmm, should probably find a new forum….

So jealous on the Parlee.. one of the local shops near me is now a dealer and they look SWEEEEEEET. i love the single direction carbon they had on the tubes on the frame they had in stock last.

As for my bikes;

Giant Reign X
Commencal Supreme 6 (Which is cracked)
Giant Defy3 road bike

and soon to have;

Giant TCR Advanced 2 2012

6 for me

3 for mrs o

Oh yes and a tandem.

Positive amateurs compared to mr and mrs kilo but like them we are different sizes and mrs o couldn’t ride when we met. Now she points out unusual forks etc when we see bikes (as if I hadn’t noticed…..!)

I’d like a tandem,but have to get me a wife first.
suppose it’s worth it though..

A few !

TBH its changed around since that picture 😮

Two and a bit,

Marin Attack Trail – so cheap i couldn’t really say no 🙂
Spec Hardrock (set up to ride to work)
Cube LTD Race (currently in bits)

Have probably got enough parts to get the Cube up and running but some of the bits are a little tempramental and/or rubbish

Just two – 29er HT, and a Hybrid.

2 x 29er rigid singlespeed’s
1 x fixed wheel road bike
1 x ti xc race bike

should be cheap to run but always seem to be buying things…..

Four ‘active’, plus inactive road bike what needs quite a few new bits.

HT Geared mtb
HT SS mtb
Fully rigid ‘touring’ mtb
SS Hybrid 29er commuter

+ Road racing bike.

Great picture MrOvershoot!

Currently 4 and 2 frames but this thread is helping justify an increase.

Blur LTc,
Orange 224,

At my height I had 7, but am constantly struggling with the notion of upping the number again… Problem is I miss the bikes I have sold in the past, and if I could get them back in the exact condition they were in when I sold them I would…

… And I would love a carbon 29er…

… And I’m saving for a mx bike 😳

Merida 96 carbon – Full sus
Merida pro carbon Ltd Edition – Hard tail
Giant XTC Carbon – Hard tail – rigid forks

I like the Rorschach average gears idea:

Umm…

27+27+9+9+14+2+18
\7
=
15.14

Gears are goood

10 working at the moment, and 9 to build or re-build 😳 , in my defence these are in three different locations, clearly not used enough or at all in some cases so some need to be sold! (when I get the time)

working at the moment:
Cannondale Chase
Another Cannondale Chase
Litsepeed Siena (Road)
Mirraco Blend Ltd(BMX)
Spooky Bandwagon (24″)
Another Spooky Bandwagon (26″)

Waiting to be built
Brodie Holeshot Ti

NSBikes Capital

Santa Cruz VPfree (rebuild)

Cannondale Delta V700 (rebuild)

Four usable at the moment

Giant Trance X
Ragley Mmmbop
Gary Fisher Artemis (still assembled)
Whyte Kings Cross

The Whyte replaces the GF as the all purpose bike, which will be disassembled into the parts bin. There are four other bikes for the rest of the Family.

Me and Her are level pegging on 4 each (although her folding one apparently “doesn’t count”). And enough tyres for 10x that number of bikes.

8 in our household, 6 are mine

Orange Evo2 hardtail
Spesh Allez Triple road bike
Canyon Nerve X9 (due 28th)
Canyon Ultimate AL 9.0 to be ordered very very soon.

(Flamejob, think the idea of hanging them on the wall is really cool)

Gf and I have 17 between us (or 18 if you include the Unicycle)…

Salsa El Mariachi ti 29er
Salsa Selma Scandium 29er
Salsa Ala Carte ti race bike
Salsa Ala Carte steel rigid
Specialized Tarmac SL3
Giant Bowery

Had a full sus but just wasn’t using it. I enjoy riding the rigid steel bike the most, it just makes everything that much more challenging. Fun times.

Salsa Moto Rapido
Airnimal Chameleon Sport
Specialized Tricross Comp

4 all usable

Dialled PA
S-works Enduro 04
Fully rigid 90’s Hardrock (childseat + Trailer puller)
MTB Tandems Fandango

Hardrock is not used much now, will go next year, riding with 1 in the child seat and 2 in the trailer is hard work. Not sure if this will work next year as they will be too big.
Tandem would be used, if only someone else looked after all the kids
PA is number 1 bike.
