I would say "normal"...whatever that is
I tend to build a new bike every 2 years or so.My latest build,the Ti Lynskey linked in my signature came in around the £5.5k mark-ish.I've recently downsized from 5 bikes to 2 too.I don't actually add up how much I spend per annum,taking into account bike,clothes,bits,traveling expenses/cycling holidays etc,anymore
I built the Ti bike with a view to keeping it a long time so less outlay.......but.......I'm thinking about another build project already
It is what it is.At least I have something to show for the outlay..well that's my argument
when the missus complains
(NB If money was a problem I would spend accordingly!)
