It is too. Rides like a dream, fast and fun. The frame is likes I've not seen before, internal brake cable routing, the lot.
I must say that the others get ridden a *lot* less than the Orbea. 4000 miles I've ridden on it since I bought it in June last year. Bought it off eBay for not a lot, when it arrived it was like brand new.0 -

One. Just one. It's my bike that I ride to work, in sportivs, to the farm, anywhere. One is great. I'm always on my best bike, not putting up with something not as good just because it rained some hours ago or whatever.
Oh and a hybrid that Boy Sr seems to have claimed for getting to school. Go on son. Get in there.0 -

I can turn it up to 11. 8) :oops: (not sure which one is more appropriate)
The first 7 are entirely justified
BMC SL01 - Good road bike
Athleticum Zip Road - Everyday/winter road bike
Giant Bowery - Fixed
Axman Carbon - For touring/heavy commuting
GT idrive - full suss mountain bike
Decathlon Vitamin - fitted with studded tyres for the snow
Specialized StreetStomper - My first proper bike, now used for dog walking duties
After that I struggled to justify any more. But i bought them anyway:
Red Bull full suss carbon mountain bike - cos its nice and sooo much better than the GT
Planet-X Nanolight - cos it was such a bargain
Charge Plug - cheap and cool
Colnago Master X light - My girlfriend spotted it at the back of a bike shop (second hand), good price and it just seemed rude not to.
There are also 2 very old bikes that we inherited with the house, rod brakes etc, similar to a swiss army bike. But i've not got round to fettling them yet.
I appear to have a bit of an addiction. I just can't stop looking and thinking hmm thats nice :oops:Just Keep Pedalling0 -
