Wouldn't mind one of these; I wouldn't ride it just hang it on the wall and enjoy owning it.

Still too new to cycling to have chosen a dream bike yet, although I love the idea of a custom made ti road bike.

Already own it, I guess if money was no object I'd have gone for the Orange 5 SE instead of the Pro, but still specced all the same upgrade parts I did from the factory, just would have had an XTR drive trian instead of the SLX XT the Pro has.

Mid-90s Cannondale 26" trials bike with Magura hydraulic rim brakes, headshock with lockout. In light blue with yellow decals.

Something like this, but a much smaller frame:

Way, way too many to have only one.

Carbon Demo 8 S-Works.

Right now I'm day dreaming about a long-travel HT and keep my Spicy for bigger stuff.

Oh, and a Santa Cruz Heckler.

And a Klein Adroit. And a Manta.

And another Specialized Fatboy A1. Raleigh Mag Burner.
