MrOvershoot, Do you own a business or are they all your bikes??? Thats an insane amount of bikes. Hats off to you if they are all yours. It takes real commitment to get to that advanced stage!

Always tempted to post on these threads….wonder how many bike thieves have viewed…

I have a one more than the missus thinks I should have and one less than I want 🙂

On One Scandal (the one with scandium)
Yeti AsrC (keeping this forever)
Specialized Centrum (three speed for work)
This year going to sell the Scandal and get a titanium 29er
Wife belives you can only ride one bike at a time and has another opinion on how many bikes a fellow should have.

Some amazing collections here, I only have the two, well 3 if you count the one I’ve given to my dad. He’s got my original stumpy fsr xc comp (minter) got a fuel ex and a scandal 29er, both great

Managed to get it down from five to three – commuter hack, HT and road bike. And am thinking of getting rid of the road bike too.

Suddenly – don’t feel too bad

Me = 7
Wife = 3
Son = 3 (but not ridden !)

Just the one – rigid 29er 1×9. Hoping to build a Scandal with Reba’s soon.

MrOvershoot, Do you own a business or are they all your bikes??? Thats an insane amount of bikes. Hats off to you if they are all yours. It takes real commitment to get to that advanced stage!

All mine (or they were in 2009) was at 11 fully running bikes now sold off a fair bit of stuff so am “down to” 7 or 8 running bikes want to slim both myself & the bike collection even further this year.

3 for me….

2011 Genesis Vapour with upgrades.

2007 Cove Handjob

2011 Nicolai Helius AM

and my Wife has a 2009 Yeti 575 and 2007 GT Legato.

7 at the moment, plus 2 for wife and 3 for the kids.

Mine:

Intense 66 – awesome, just changed 36 RC2s for Lyrik Coil U Turns.
Intense EVP 55 – lovely.
Turner Flux – proper 4 bar 100mm marathon bike
Merlin Mountain – Ti hardtail with original Fox Floats
Cotic Soul – 2010 model with Fox Talas
Giant MCM – full carbon with Pace RC31s – commuter
Airborne Manhattan Project Ti/ Carbon Roadie – terrifying!

Giver N=n+1, I’m considering an Alfine 29er for my new tarmac longer/ flatter commute – suggestions? 8 sp good enough or should I wait for the Alfine 11?

At the moment, 3 and a half.

Carrera Kraken, 1×9, Rebas, XTR brakes/shifter for XC.
Turner Rail, 1×9, Pikes, Louises for DH/jumps/whatever. (To be honest this hardly gets used and stays at home when I’m at uni, but I can’t bring myself to get rid of it, I don’t think I’d get a lot for it)
Fly Pantera BMX for getting around campus/used to ride parks on it too.
Got a Gary Fisher GED frame, and enough parts to build it, might do at some point.
Really want a roadie this year, borrowed one last year and loved it.

3 – sportive road bike, hard tail mountain bike and commuter bike. These cover most of my riding “needs”

The last one has changed as jobs/offices/commuting routes have evolved.

Actually, could do with a 4th really, an audax bike for winter riding. And a better commuter. And another hard tail so I could have a winter bike and a “best” bike. And maybe a full sus for bigger days out….

Damn you, now look what you’ve made me do!

Orange P7
