How many bicycles do you own ?

[sevenfourate]

I currently own:

A slightly larger; modern 22” BMX
A TREK MTB
A TREK Hybrid
A Carrera Subway
A Carrera Subway - Winter bike.
**1 x Man-cave Display: ET BMX.

However i’m craving for a ‘Gravel bike’. I’m not entirely sure it will make me faster. I’m not sure I’ll enjoy riding it any more than my Carrera’s. And I’m not sure I need it / it will do anything much the others can’t.

I just want one !

So - what about you ? 🤷‍♂️

Just the four here! A Thorn Raven Sport Tour which does the commuting and utility miles as well as loaded touring. A dahon folder which is a bit underused now but served me well when work trips involved trains. Spa Ti elan for winter rides, light touring and some mild off road. Spa Ti audax for summer day rides.

4 and a unicycle.
Soon to be 3 and a unicycle.

I fancy a new bike in 2025 but it will replace one of the other ones so I'll still only have 3 and a unicycle.

All the bikes I've ever had:

1. Kiddie trike with steel seat & pedals on the front wheel

Tern Link Uno folding bike that's my daily commuter.
1994 Dawes Super Galaxy that's permanently attached to the turbo trainer in the cellar.
Home made single speed Bamboo bike.
Sonder Frontier hardtail mountain bike.
Kona Sutra LTD gravel bike.

Then I also have a couple of random frames and other sundries lying around that I really should do something with.

n, where n+1 is the ideal

 

[HLaB]

Not enough!

 

[StuAff]

Too few.

 

[Gwylan]

Just the Cowboy E-Bike at the moment.

Looking for a touring bike that suits me. 5'8", 80 kg - much prefer upright cycling. Hence straight bars
Could be E-Bike but needs 100+ km range.
Then there's a weight trade off. But not > 30 kg.
Expect regular bike to weigh less.

 

[raleighnut]

531 Raleigh 'Road Ace'
Raleigh super Equipe
Raleigh Outlander MTB
Raleigh City 3 speed
Carlton Clubman
Saracen Blitz
653 Time Trial bike (handbuilt but don't know by whom, no frame number)
Ridgeback Adventure
And of course my Trike.

All highly modified/uprated by me to my spec (better cranks, brakes, wheels mechs etc) generally about £500 to a Grand on each with the Raleigh 'City' being the least expensive but technically the most highly modded (wheels changed to 700c Ally rather than 26" steel with rims laced onto the old rear hub and a front 'Dynohub' I had in the shed, so shorter reach brake calipers Wienmann ones I had knocking about (instead of the bits of bent steel that Raleigh fitted to their 'utility bikes') Crank changed to a square taper Stronglight from the steel 'Cottered' original, new Aluminium bars/seatpost/stem/rack and of course a Brooks. Most expensive being the 653 TT bike which had a Campagnolo seatpost and headset when I bought it so is all 'Campy' but with Roval wheels and of course a Brooks (in this case a Swift Titanium)

Down to 4 from 15.
