  • I got divorced and now have three new bikes in the pipeline :)

  • Caad9 (roadie/commuter/race bike)
    Winter 853 (track/street/fixed tt)
    Columbus Air (tt)
    Peloton (njs sunday pootler/track playtime bike)

    we aren't listing frames though right ;)

  • now:

    Bob jackson vigorelli (everyday fixed)
    feather cycles (fair-weather fixed)
    colnago dream b-stay with ultegra

    thankfully been like that for about a year now. I think i'm actually in profit for bike-related purchases/sales over the last twelve months. Top tip: If anyone wants to spend about £250,000 on nappies and the such, over the next 20 years , have a baby.

  • I think the fashionable thing to do is to deny you know how many bikes you have

  • 07 Langster (pub bike)
    08 Condor Pista (posh bike)
    90 Rocky Mountain Hammer (old/off-road bike)

    So from Feb 11, I've now arrived at:

    08 Condor Pista (pub bike)
    03 Klein Q Carbon Team (posh bike)
    90 Rocky Mountain Hammer (old/off-road bike)

    And numerous other bikes have passed through. The last being a Tricross, which went at the weekend.

  • Working:
    Carrera Kraken xc bike
    Gary Fisher GED hardtail/downhill/jump bike
    Merlin Malt R road bike

    Plus
    Some 13" dirt jump frame
    Some catalogue alu road frame
    All the bits of a Giant OCR4 just not together
    And the start of a build of an 80s Holdsworth singlespeed.

  • Mine has grown a little

    1) Claud Butler, fixed road
    2) Giant TCR, road
    3) Giant Omnium, track
    4) Giant Peloton 7200, commuter
    5) Cove Hummer, SS mtb
    6) Donohue, Time trial
    7) Donohue, Cyclo cross
    8) Saracen Kili 1996, polo bike
    9) Huffy 'Crazy Fun', franken/clunker

    10) New polo frame is on the way.

  • HHSB
    Beater
    Full sus 26er
    Soon to have a practical fixed gear for commuting and a more outrageous HHSB.

  • '83 Gios Super Record Pista
    Raleigh Panasonic Team replica
    Geoffrey Butler fixed pub bike

  • Well my first post in this thread from 2008 I had 1 working bike, 1 broken and one frame. 2nd post below, 3 and a frame.

    I now have 4 totally working:
    Tourer/alphine (Genesis day-one)
    Polo bike (on one pomp)
    Kid carrying bike (charge steamer)
    Fixed (Parks)
    2 broken
    Racer (trek 1000, broken crank and rusting)
    Downtube tourer (Dawes galaxy, basically working)
    And 2 frames:
    Back up polo bike (pompetamin)
    Mountain bike (Saracen)

    But also in the last 4 years my collection has been augmented by my girlfriends bikes:
    Geared (cannondale badboy)
    Fixed (specialised tricross)
    And about 5 children's bikes (if you count the tag along and trailer as bikes?

    Still no tandems, recumbents or unicycles... But it's only a matter of time.

    3.5
    Geared Racer (alu, first bike I bought with my money)
    Dawes galaxy commuter (from the 70's with top tube shifters, which effectively makes it single speed when I'm riding it!)
    raleigh fixed polo bike
    rather pretty old steel track frame that I'm going to lavish realy expensive parts on... when i can aford it! :-)

    Would also like a commuter fixed so I don't have to ride the polo bike on days when I'm not playing polo...

    After that I'll be getting a tandem and at some point after that, I'll probably get a unicycle... and after that I'll probably start getting recumbents (probably some point :-)

  • I have an unicycle at work which I can't ride. Does that count?

  • counts as 0.5

  • Looking at a Downhill MTB / double suss MTB after Xmas if Santa Cruz is feeling generous

  • 8) Saracen Kili 1996, polo bike

    I picked up a '97 kili team for £20 a few weeks back.

  • ftfy

    I hope he's not still in nappies when he's 20, but, yeah, pretty much.

  • ^^ Full bike? My frame was £50 brand new

  • Yup, all original apart from shifters/brake levers. Ain't got round to riding it yet though.

  • Nice!

  • I think the fashionable thing to do is to deny you know how many bikes you have

    I don't even know if I have bikes.

  • what's a bike?

  • It's quite nice, bit rusty in parts but should be good when I sort the wheels out.

  • Interesting thread. My bikes
    1) Dawes Jaguar 1993 now restored
    2) Geoffrey Butler1996 Columbus Aelle - now a summer touring fixie
    3) Raleigh Clubman 1999 - now resored
    4) Ali road winter bike - 2004 weighs a ton -
    5) Surly crosscheck 2012 - brilliant
    6) Surly steamroller 2013 build in progress

    I don't like to dispense with my old bikes, I suppose they bring back happy times.
    It's not expensive to fit tyres, chains when they wear out. I use them all even the ali winterbike.I 'd like to add a ss 29er but I live in w london where there's really nowhere to ride.
