3 here: 2 mtb and 1 road. I just don't have room for 8 bikes. In fact I don't have room for 3 bikes, LOL. I probably will thin the herd down to 2 bikes to simplify: My Turner sultan for dirt and Trek for the road workouts.
Does anyone here know where i can get a K2 Attack 2.0 Mountain Bike (2006-2008)? i'm having a hard time looking for this specific mtb. Just curious if anyone who owns this type of MTB would want to sell theirs or know where i can get one? please let me know
1) All Mountain: Univega RAM AM 5
2) Road Bike: Univega Via Antaris Pro
3) Trekking Bike: Raleigh Night Flight Alfine 11
4) A white Gudereit Youngtimer from the 80s
5) A bad looking city bike which I can leave unattented for a while.
I've owned two and three bikes at a time before but I inevitably end up selling off all but one. I think I end up forming an attachment, in a strange way a 'relationship' with that one bike that I can't seem to get when I own multiples.
Plus, it makes it a lot more affordable to create a super-bike when you can pour all the money you shouldn't be spending into one bike rather than two.
Down to three now totally tricked out works of art
2000 Novara Randonee steel touring fully decked out for weeks of travel
Willier carbon cross racer with riser bar, XT, handbuilt wheels, fat 42 tires and style
Sette Serum carbon hardtail w SID 15mm, XTR XX 2x10, custom wheels 2.4mutanos
I ride all 3. Sometimes up to 9800 miles a year but mostly between 5 and 7 thousand a year as far back as I can recall. I pity zombot tools on the way to duty their daze away to pay for their own little rolling metal shipping container. sad stuff indeed
OOps almost forgot
BMC RM01 Dura 9000 C-24 wheels, Ultegra in the stand being built right now. .
I hope this thing is as sweet as the Dura ace CAAD9 I sold last year.
i had a 2013 cannondale hardtail trail 29er 2 until i i lost it on the highway using a thule 9002 raceway. i have since replaced it with 2013 cannondale jekyll 3. a huge upgrade from a trail 29er. i knew i was going to eventually upgrade the components, so i went with the best. i am looking for another bike for a future ride. either a niner or santa cruz

Well thats a bummer, I have a Thule 9002 and never lost a bike or even come close, but I strap the hell out of mine. I don't trust any bike rack. Sorry about your loss.
0 bikes which is why I'm on here researching because within a month I will be buying 3 bikes, 1 for me(looking at Kona Explosif 27.5), 1 for my son (looking at a Kona Kahuna DL) and one for my gf (looking at a Kona Mohala). I already bought the step daughter a Louis Garneau. Been saving up all winter to get back into biking and dragging them all with me lol.
Why are you looking solely at Kona? I have found that Treks have great value for money. For Example, when I was looking for a new bike, the Kona Kahuna had a steel coil forf at the same price as the Trek Cobia which had an air fork.
And the LORD spake, saying, "Thou shalt owneth three bikes, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt own, and the number of the owning shall be three. Four shalt thou not own, neither own thou two, excepting that thou then proceedeth to owning three. Five is right out."
1. MTB: slightly upgraded 2010 GT Avalanche 3.0 (~30 lbs)
2. Road: fixed up steel frame 10-speed 1980's Raleigh Gran Sport (~28 lbs)
so both are pretty heavy, but I still have fun and they get me where I want to go
the most dedicated cyclist I know only owns one bike, and it's a ridiculously old mountain bike with no suspension fork. he has slicks on it for street riding and he does 30-40 miles per day, rain, sleet, snow, or shine. he recently did 60 miles for his 60th birthday and he routinely goes on 4 day long biking trips doing 70 miles per day.
1. 2010 Surly Karate Monkey (rigid SS) and also my main ride
2. 2011 Redline Conquest Team Cyclocross
3. 2006 Gary Fisher Cake 3 (currently getting a refresh so its in pieces)
4. 1996 Mongoose Sycamore (geared rigid) and also my first mountain bike and it was just returned to me and i cant wait to take it out for a stroll.
There are also 3 more nice mountain bikes in the house for wife and kids and the little guy is just on a normal 14" BMX type bike
1. MTB: 2012 Kona Unit
2. ROAD: 2010 Specialized Roubaix
3. Dad's old steel Giant being rebuild to gravel grinder (with seat on the back for my kid, so I can take him with me when biking)
1) Brand new Canfield N9 (zero miles).
2) 9:ZERO:7.
3) 2010 Giant Defy Advanced 3 (upgraded to complete 105).
4) 2004 Spesh Allez Elite (getting replaced by the Giant).
5) 1992 Speshy Stumpjumper PRO (very good condition, but brought it home to find the seatpost STUCK in the frame...ffffff)
6) Wifes' 2010 Spesh Sirrus. (I really want to get her an Egg Plant Surly Troll)
I know this has already been said, but I have one too few, but more like three too few.
