I'd be interested to hear how many guys own more than one fixed gear and whether they both / all get used regularly? I go through phases of collecting them then selling them again because I think its a waste - and regretting it.
cheers

3 track bikes, 2 road and a mountain bike

I have shinty-six bikes.



3 frames, enough parts to make up 2 bikes at any one time. I swap parts from one frame to the other every now and again. All fixies.

1 road, 2 mountain, 1 fixed, 2 bmx

I buy and sell bikes all the time, never keep them for much more than a year..

my riding needs sometimes change, sometimes I just feel like a change..

at the moment I have two fixed wheel bikes, both get used regularly.

pomp for pub/work/locking up/short hop

wilson for long rides/nice rides/everything else

but neither are really suitable for the track, and this is something I want to address..

I can't justify a third fixed bike! but I fancy changing the wils for something more tracky..

also have a geared mtb 4x race bike, but I've ridden it once since I built it a few months ago, I think it might have to go to fund a geared road bike or nice track bike.

3 bikes is good for me, all different, otherwise one will always suffer and not get ridden, which is a shame.

uk: road, old road, ss mtb, soma fix, raleigh fix, cuntster fix
oz: road, road, track, hardtail

The cuntster gets used for commuting while the other two gather dust.

Five.

Two geared road bikes, a fixed wheel road bike, and two mountain bikes.

4 track
2 road
1 mtb
1 bmx
1 tt
and frames

1,017 and 1 spare Hed frame.

I thought you had 5,014 :(

Currently 4: best road bike, winter/crap weather road bike, track bike and my fixed commuter/round about town bike.

You're right I forgot about the basement.

what about the O.Mosely ? the one you use for NF marches and rallies?

2 road
4 fixed
1 Moulton

the Moulton I just right to get pizza

1 fixed - commuter. gets over 100km a week
1 road - plenty of use on weekends
1 mtb - gathering dust. used no more than 5 times in the last year

1 ss mtb (skinny tyre) commuter.
1 ss mtb (knobblies) very dirty.
1road
1mtb geared
4 assorted frames, 9 wheels and a ton of bits.

I'm a bit of an e bay addict.

Toodle pip

1 x geared NTB (Handjob)
1 x fixed wheel (Condor)
1 x Old road (Titanium Raleigh)

It's about 2 bikes too many for the space i have and the general riding i do. I'm thinking about ditching the road and getting a touring/commuter (Crosscheck?)

only 3 now
1x rossin pursuit
1x colnago track
1x specialized downhill

1 fixed commuter/road (condor pista)
1 ss mtb (dialled love/hate)
1 fullsuss MTB (giant trance-X)
1 posing fixed mercian bent frame awaiting restoration

I don't own any of my bikes. We're just friends really. Well, more like fuck buddies.

japan = track, ss
UK= mtb

1x fixed commuter 74"
1x fixed pub/hack bike 67" (also shared by my son who's now been fixated)
1x geared hybrid with rack + guards for occasional heavy loads (rarely used)

guess the next question is. where do you store all your bikes?
have already difficulties with the two (fixed, road). space is the limiting factor for getting any more.

I got a cheap folder that wont last much because i wore itout slightly.
I got one geared road bike
And then there the frame which is going to be fixed.

1 fixed.

I have about 30 skateboards though.

i have one fixed bike.


i do have a collection of 46 super-cars and classic sports-cars in a climate controlled converted stable block, though.

One braked fix, one brakeless, one lo-pro brakeless and the frame of one too perfect to use under the bed, sometimes i slide her out (she's in an open top box in bubble wrap), caress her tubes and decals and imagine i'm riding her. But then I think of all the bad things that could happen to her, and I slip her back into her safe under-bed haven. I call her RenshoFritzl.

The other problem is the time in maintenance, cleaning, oiling, pumping, riding, bullshitting, pimping, crashing, fixing, sportiving, posting, posing, buying, swapping, sellling, powdercoating, clear coating, Humbrolling, it's fucking never ending.

just stick to the oiling, bullshitting and riding then, it's much easier when you break it down to the essentials

At last, a person with a lucid brain.

fix in room
ss downstairs in hall way
mtb in shed

no picture tho.. fail i guess

1 x road
1 x fixed

looking at everyone else and starting to feel a little inadequate (holds head down).

1 track, 1 road, 1 TT, 1 town bike, 1 HHSB. want to get a mountain bike again - the last one got squashed by a truck : (

1 road and 1 fixed

want to build another fixed bike though.
