I’ve got a FS Titus mtb, Specialised Tricross (set up as road-based tourer), and a Specialised Dolce road bike.
Only my Titus has been better than my OH’s (both ex and current), and although my mtb cost more than both my road bikes put together, I now am more of a roadie than a mtb’er – I guess showing that for me it’s not all about the bike 🙂
With all my bikes, I’ve chosen, spec’ed, and paid for them myself. I’m curious as to how many women out there are riding what their partner got them, or have decided for themselves? (That’s not saying one option is better than the other!)
