One Bike Only

[biggs682]

If you could only have/own one bike what bike would it be??? add a picture if you want

for me it would now be a fully rigid mtb 27.5 with 2 wheelsets and multiple tyre choices

Would have to be this, my Ridgeback Panorama in blue.
A bike which I sadly don't use enough...

This.

I’ve had some nice bikes but this one puts a silly little smile on my face whenever I’m on it.

Boardman Team Carbon would do if I could only have one.

If I needed panniers I could take the Kaffenback

Only one bike end this heresy now.

A steel tourer. Don't know what I'd get if buying a new one, but I'm perfectly happy with the Raleigh Royal I built up from the frame.

My most practical bike is my Mercian. Rack, dynamo hub, gears.
The one I ride the most is my M Stine fixed wheel. It camn take a bar bag.
If I was down to one, I'd have to go for the Mercian.

For the type of cycling I do now, Reynolds 953 frame, horizontal geometry to fit a full size frame pump, audax clearances for full guards, Hydraulic disc brakes and a small rack at the rear.

I'm not a steel freak, but the custom paint job I have in mind (Cherry red, white panels on seat and down tubes, 3/4 polished forks and stays) would look so much better on a traditional design. If you love looking at it, you'll want to ride it more.

ok well if buying new it would be Marin Gestalt 2

or if i could only keep one of my current fleet then Dunelt returns i think would get the vote

OP reported. Hopefully the moderation team will do the sensible thing and banish this thread into the abyss.

I'd really struggle with this. A good quality tourer like my Galaxy will do everything I want and is a joy to ride but I have more of an emotional attachment to my technically inferior Raleigh so couldn't get rid of that.

If starting from scratch and I could only have one bike it would probably be a titanium tourer with disc brakes.
