The Cannondale CX has a dual personality and spends the summer as a touring bike with flat bars and V-brakes. Descending on those crappy canti's with panniers would be no fun.

2011 Planet X SL Pro Carbon

I spent a few hours mucking about in Kindlestown woods this afternoon with mini-Plastik and I now badly want a hard tail MTB for some trails. But then again, I've carbon clinchers in the post, I need a cassette, tyres, tubes. I need to more carbonify my Planet X. I need new shoes.

I have only two myself, one year old Lapierre road bike and beloved frankenbike commuter built up on 15 year old Cannondale mountain bike frame with components ranging from 6 months to 25 years.

Had a KTM Life Motion for 2 days before a man with a van took an angle grinder to the lock on it in the underground car park in work. Sickener.
Currently saving for a Canyon, can't decide on the Roadlite of Ultimate AL

Hi! Just wondering what bikes everyone have...

I have only two:

1. Cannondale CAAD 10 - currently in everyday use, i.e. commuting and weekend spins.

2. Cannondale SuperSix - it was my first road bike (bought last) year and all the components has been removed from the bike to be put into the CAAD 10 (which originally came with Shimano 105), including wheels. So there is only frameset left at the moment with a saddle. I was planning to rebuild this bike with new components, but I am not sure where to go with this. The problem I see is that it would cost so much money and the CAAD 10 does everything I need it to do at the moment.

Oh, forgot my third bike:

3. Raleigh X-1. Used as a short distance commuter years ago when I lived in town.

About 14 at the last count

I collect/restore vintage roadsters. I have 2 wartime Elswick-Hoppers, 1 1930s (I think, more research required) Humber, a 1950s Rudge 3 speed, a 1970 Batavus, and a few later 3 speed roadsters.

I also have a 531 framed Carlton fixed gear (my favourite bike), a 1970s Peugeot touring bike, a late 1970s Viking Superstar (Northern Ireland built model), a late 1980s Peugeot racing bike, a 1975 Viscount Aerospace, another no-name brand 1970s "gas pipe" road bike built as a fixed gear which I ride during the winter months and a 1971 Dublin built Raleigh Twenty folding bike (which has been in the family since new, in my care since I was about 9).

They all get used, at least occasionally.

Donie75

Specialized Secteur Elite - bought this in 2010 as my first road bike. Recently swapped the groupset onto my new frame. Will be my winter bike.

Dolan Hercules SE - Recently built up with the kit off the spesh. Planning to move that kit back to the Spesh. Currently collecting up Ultegra 6700 bits.

Cube Acid - Bought secondhand to replace a Hybrid I never used. Hoping to get into more MTB stuff this year.

I fancy building up a Fixie/SS at some stage but I don't know if I'd get the use out of it.

Only 2 at the moment...

Peugeot 501 fixie commuter
BMC Streetracer SR01 105 road bike

Been toying with a few different ideas for during the summer, but lack of money is the usual drawback. If only I didn't have to eat....

Quigs Snr

Cervelo s1 - Dura Ace, Powertap Wheels
Cervelo s2 - Sram Red, Zipp 808 tubs
Cervelo R3sl - Sram Red, Reynolds 46Dvtul
Cervelo P4 - Sram Red Black, Zipp 900/808

And in the non Cervelo category

Trek Madone 5.2 - Dura Ace 7800, zipp 404 tubs

Ribble sl with Microshift, Reynolds assault clinchers lives on turbo trainer.

Beone team mountainside for the annual pilgrimage to ballyhoura.

And one brand x alu frame with dura ace 7700 that will make someone a nice entry.bike when I sell it.

manwithaplan

Quigs - what do you mainly use the various bikes for? They all seem so high-end that I'm struggling to see where each one comes into its own (other than the TT bike).

Of course, "I ride whichever one I like the look of" is perfectly acceptable as an answer!

Well, I am going to sell the brand x and give the Madone (without zipps) to someone as a present. Mtb for off-road, the old ribble is a permanent fixture on the tacx imagic.

P4 for TTs which I do a fair few of. S1 is the winter trainer, tough, aluminium, heavy powertap wheels and a compact and older, better and tougher 7800 kit.

The r3sl was the good bike. So the only extravagance is the s2 which was got a use up a bike scheme when there was a threat of redundancy a while back.. so I er.. cycle that to work or something.

Apart from that, I just love bikes. Cycling.... not so much.

There ya go!

The Correct number of bikes is n + 1 (where "n" is the number of bikes you currently own)

Have you not read the rules?



BTW..I have 3.

ROK ON

Orbea Aqua - training, winter and poor weather bike. Formerly my commuter.

Dolan Hercules SL - former good bike. Now predominantly on the turbo. May use this for racing in the county summer league & TT's.

Kuota Kebel - Good bike. Only for nice weather.

Let me put it this way ...

My bikes (in total) cost (quite a bit) less than half as much as my car cost

My bikes (in total) travel further than my car

Each of my bikes (hopefully) will last longer than my car.

My bikes are easier to maintain than my car (in fact I can do pretty much all of it myself)

My bikes (with a bit of luck) will add a few years to my life

My bikes are therefore better value than my car

QED

(not tht I feel any need to justify spending so much on my bikes)

@Beasty,

Sell the bleedin' car then.;)

The car is for getting to sportives though

I haven't ridden it yet! I only got it two weeks ago and was sent the wrong bottom bracket cups so I'm waiting for the right ones to finish building it up.

Lumen would be able to answer your question though.
