Nothing amazing, entry level bikes.
I think I enjoy cycles as much as cycling, I still need to rebuild my GT BMX. Would like a road bike, a single speed hybrid project, a retro MTB to join the RetroBike forums, and maybe an original Raleigh Burner because it was my first proper bike.
Mongoose Tyax Elite, entry level MTB, bought a couple of years ago.
My first bike in 20 years. Added bar ends, semi slick tyres, bottles and cages. This bike just fits and I find it comfortable to ride. I rode about 50mile on the original knobblies and enjoyed it all. Prestatyn to LLandudno on the coast cycle path.
Giant Box One, bought from a friend. I have yet to ride anywhere to warrant the bike. My first full suspension bike, I have no idea how much of it is original.
Dawes Discovery 401, an Ebay purchase. I wanted something a bit quicker for the streets. It is, it's a decent ride but I know now I should have gone fully road. Suspension forks and disc brakes just aren't needed and are heavy.
Thanks for reading,
Stew.
