[Davywalnuts]

[TwickenhamCyclist]

Carbon framed Giant - must be at least 12 by now

 

[ACS]

531c frame certainly over 18 years old may be more, Sirrus 2006

 

[Soltydog]

My newest bike is nearly 4 months old
& my oldest bike is approx 18 years old
& a few in between

 

[Hilldodger]

My oldest is 1870.

 

[fossyant]

Best bike - 18 years old - pro level bike
Training Bike - 16 Years old (one step down from pro)
MTB - 14-16 Years old... - current daily work horse for getting to work

Hoping to get a new workhorse for going to work, then the MTB can go back to being a proper MTB.

 

[HLaB]

My oldest is 1870.

I take it you never bought it new

My road/commuter (Scott CR1) will be 3 in August when it'll be time to trade it in.

 

[Cranky]

Day bike/commuter: 5 years
MTB: 7 years
Brompton: 8 years
Pub bike (secondhand MTB): 15 years approx.

Plus, new tourer/day bike: 1 month (intend to sell 1st day bike/commuter once confident in abilities of the new one).

I'd buck the trend here and say if you're happy with your old bike, stick with it (although a spare is always useful).

n+1 - just buy another one !!!

 

[Davidc]

Only have one at present - 4 months old ATB (glorified MTB). I've changed the knobbly tyres for thinner smoother ones which has put the speeds up, and I'll never ever have another bike with aluminium frame and front suspension - but it was a christmas present so shouldn't complain, and I'll miss it when it goes the way of all bikes and it gets nicked !

 

[4F]

My fixed conversion 39 years old
My best bike 8 years old

Love 'em all but still want more!
