[Closed] New year New bike?

I have a Bird Zero 1arriving Monday,.....

Also if and when my insurers pay out I will be replacing my Bronson with either a Nomad or a YT Capra. Going to be like a pig in shit (unless Protext your bubble screw me in my insurance)

Yes - canyon spectral. Sadly not until,may!

Hopefully I will be getting a new full suspension bike and more importantly making the time to get out on it.

I really need to get fit again.

arrived built and now with lurgy ..............aaahhhhhhhhh 🙁

My 'dale cross bike is coming on Monday. First ever drop barred bike. There may be trouble ahead...

It's got discs though!

No, the opposite in fact.

I'm sworn off new bikes at least until 2016 - on pain of humiliation and mockery.

Yep, I've just put a deposit down for a Soma B-Side. Should be here by the end of the month!

Kinesis Sync new build. All the parts are sitting at home except for the AB Oval chain ring. Will be building the bike up next weekend so hope it arrives in time...

I got my first road bike on the cycle to work scheme just before Christmas (it had it's first outing yesterday) and my boy got a balance bike from [s]grandma[/s] Santa:

I have a Solaris to build but there is no rush because I won't be able to ride it for another month.

I really want to get myself a DH bike, but we need to move house first as I simply don't have the room in my shed. I want a double garage.

Got an Orbea Rallon a couple of days before xmas - very nice it is.

Yep, going to give some more Enduro races a go this year so getting the associated parts together as we speak, just need the frame now, whenever it turns up....

Seriously considering a new road bike. Cervelo s5, giant propel or an argon 18.

Camber evo, but have my eye on a super XC HT in the sale. Deserve a new bike

Ordering a new road bike (1st ever) in the next couple of weeks.

I have had my head turned by that new camber Evo.

New year bike out of a skip.

Croix De Fer 30 due in about a week. Signed off from riding till at least end of month tho.....

Hopefully, but still undecided as to what I'm buying

Yup, gonna treat myself for my birthday.
I've got it down to a choice of 4.

Not [i]for[/i] the New Year but hopefully [i]in[/i] this new year. I just need the rear axle standards for 650B+ to settle down a bit.

Bird Zero coming for me on Tuesday 😀

No! I'm gonna use my Yeti until it's 10 years old.

[edit] It's better than all these crappy new ones anyway 🙂

Canyon Strive (AL) due to arrive in February. Usually snows up here around Feb/Mar time so might not get to use it for a while. Assuming stuff I've heard about Canyon bikes taking longer than expected to arrive doesn't happen this year.

anyone got a new bike coming for the new year?

mine should be landing next week

my frame and forks next week as well 😉 subject to the efficiency of UPS

what is your new bike Ton?

what is your new bike Ton?

* flexes fingers and prepares to have a stab at making it two in a row.

I'll have a guess at something from Surly.

[s] Straggler[/s] ECR?

Got a rigid Salsa El Mar at the end of last year.

Question is - should I put suspension forks on it? Or go the other way and fit say drop handlebars and narrow tyres?

No new bikes for me this year.

Made a promise to the Mrs 😐

Any new bike would only be an addition anyway. More than happy with my current line up.

Hell no.
Stick a Dually & a Knard on the front.

Ton's new bike...

Fargo. ?

Waiting on a 2nd hand Cotic Soul to arrive and see if it inspires me more to ride a hardtail than the C456 it will replace.

Ton's new bike...

Stooge I reckon

Stick a Dually & a Knard on the front.

You wot? How is a 3" tyre better than suspension? It's not cheaper! £100 for a rim ffs.

My Tripster should arrive next week. Ordered 2 months ago. Built the wheels over the hols. All the kit is sitting in the bedroom annoying the Mrs. 🙂

Getting a hybrid in a few weeks. It's looking like being a Moda Immer.

Of course 😛

Not a MTB, but got a brand spanking new Raleigh Pioneer town bike after my old one was nicked.

Rooster............

Ordered a Pickenflick to replace my Major Jake in the PX sale. Hopefully to arrive next week

Er, picking up a new v-strom in March when the new reg comes in...

A Rose Uncle Jimbo arrived for me on Christmas eve... Its ace!

Nope 🙁

Been promising myself one for almost 3 years now, still haven't been able to get the cash together

Slipped and bought a bandit frame from the classified. I'm so 2012...

Picked up my new Switchback yesterday afternoon from Mr Stanton.

Looks lovely in cherry red and can't wait for the bits to arrive this week. The Slackline has been sold...hope that the Switchback is as good because the Slackline was brilliant but a bit small for proper riding.

Still trying to be patient for my Bird Aeris.
Afaik it's still on for late Feb. Every nice day in Feb is going to be painful without a new bike!
It'll be my first new MTB in 9 years! At least the old one is still going strong.

benpinnick - if you're reading - how about a New Year progress/status update to all of us Aeris pre-orderers 🙂

Sabbath September frame arriving on Monday. Haven't got any components to put on it though.time for a bit of shopping I think.

Yep, a 2Souls Quarterhorse build.

Frame should b here at the end of January! 🙂

I just ordered a new Giant Anthem X2 from Paulscycles.I was going to order a Canyon Nerve on Monday morning,but after seeing how cheap I could get the Anthem for I decided to get it bought.The bonus is that I can still use my as new 26" Stans tubeless set-up.Now need to find a way of slackening the head angle a bit & the jobs sorted

Still looking for a fatty at the right price. Which is quite a small price.

Preparing to commute into work in the nicer weather (that's my excuse anyway), one Scott Solace Disc is now on order

Northwind - You didn't plump for one of those Silverback Scoops then?

You'll not regret that.
A great handling frame.

I've not got anything new for 2015 but the Mrs has.
