Dialled Prince Albert Classic since July 2012 and the Rockshox Pike that are on it are from 2007 and still going.
Come to think of it the SLX brakes are from 2009 and only ever had one bleed recently.
All good value for money and it's not as if it doesn't get used.
Just got my first bike Friday as I only arrived in the UK 2 weeks ago.
2014 cotic soul mint condition and going to break it in on the yorkshire dales Saturday. 😀
Triggers broom Sanderson is officially 2011, but forks, wheels, cranks and stem are from 07 Orange St4.
Mrs_oab has a 2000 Cannondale F9000SL.
Middle_oab has a 2001 Specialized Hardrock.
Main (and only) bike is built around a 2009 frame. Pretty much everything else is 2014/15
Had to make my own linkage as it's that old Intense don't make some spares for it any more..

As with all things STW, I fear there is probably more than a little self-selecting sample bias to the 'bike stable' ages given in this thread.
2012 model..... bought in 2013
2009 Froggy 518, bought it second hand last year and loving it!
1999 marin b17!
She's 35
2007/2008 Cotic Soul (arrived about 2 days before christmas, but built just after new year)
Nearly a year, but without the slightest hint of any regrets, so it's looking good.
🙂
10 years next month. Keep promising myself a FS but can't get inspired by many of the new designs.
Quite fancy a Dawg to do as a project or a Tanuki. Always liked Kona.
2004/5(?) Orange 5, had since new, an ebay bargain
Approaching 4 years.
The bike I ride to work most days is 9 years old.
My Surly 1x1, which is my most ridden off-roader is 8 years old.
2003 Spesh Enduro Pro
Its a bit of a triggers broom, though, only the frame and shock linkage remain EVERYTHING else has been replaced / upgraded.
Did the FOD DH trails on it just before new year too.
Just replaced my eight year old Mongoose, and only then because I cracked the frame.
Replaced with a seven year old Mongoose.
Main bike 2011 Covert, back up for use if doing any longish distance XC with younger legs to try and hold onto, Carbon Pronghorn but with it's long stem removed and wider bars fitted, Road bike I've used it twice can't see why anyone in their right mind finds riding in all those traffic fumes, dodging potholes, spinning like a girl, anything other than extreme tedium, it's a Wilier Imperiele thing I swapped some kites for it, he got the better deal.
1 month old.
Last bike was nearly 5 so about time!
Mountain bike - 2011-2012 Salsa Horsethief, purchased second hand last year
Road bike - 2005 Spezialized Allez, purchased new in 2005
4 years old - but that was an insurance replacement otherwise I'd still be riding the carrera that I had for 2yrs before that
triggers track bike had a major rebuild about 3yrs ago and the road bike is about the same kind of age.
I'm not planning on getting anything else although I may go 1x9 or 1x10 on the mountain bike and possibly new brakes at some point because the juicy3s are s***te
2006 Blur LT
with a 2008 Specialized Allez for the road
only have 2 bikes...
2014 Sarcen studio 74 (commuter)
the other bike is a mix of ages
giant reign x2 2009 frame, most of the components are 2013+ except the wheels (2004/5)
trying to summon up the courage to mention to the wife that a new yt capra is on the radar as the next bike purchase... 😯
2014 On One 45650b
2014 Nukeproof Mega
2013 Canyon Torque DHX
main bike - built the frame last year but parts are anything from 1995 (bar ends) to 2015
bike with most mileage last year - 1994 m-trax Ti (toured over 1800km on it in one go)
defining "Main" is tricky eg my cx commuter that does the most miles is just over 12months old, but MTB my most ridden is a 2003 heckler and my "bestest" rufty tufty-est, only brought out for "proper" rides mtb is a ~2007 hemlock.
Most of the components aren't as old as the frames, some ageing cranks/hubs/saddles tho.
my main bike was a 2011 Bfe, but i stripped that last summer and put the parts onto a 2013 Liteville 301. I've ridden that only twice, having ended the season prematurely after a bad crash.
My most ridden bike (that is fully built) is my 07 Marin [b]Qua[/b](c)[b]ke[/b](rs)
2005 Kona dawg, good all rounder and don't worry about scratching the paint, ride it every day.
2010 trek remedy
1995 Voodoo Erzulie gets used the most so I guess it's my main bike
My MTB is a MkII Soul
Just checking my mail, main bike is from 2004 - older than I thought! (Just the frame, seatpost and clamp - I think most of the other bits have been replaced at some point or other).
