My MTB, Felt Nine Comp.

Don't have a decent pic of my road bike. It's a Scott Speedster S-20. A decent midgrade aluminum frame bike. All of my bikes are better bikes than I am as a rider.

Just got a new Quest after my Lemond road bike was broadsided by an unkind driver.


I love this bike. It's so comfortable I could use it as my everyday bike. However, I'm still too loyal to my Trek 7500 FX to just hang it up and never ride it again.

My old mountain bike that I recently resurrected. It's a Mountain Smith Traverse. Mountain Smith is more known for their outdoor gear like backpacks, camera bags and such. For the $200 I paid for it about 6 or 7 years ago, it's actually been a pretty decent bike.

The guy who lives upstairs designs carbon fibre parts for the bicycle and automotive industry and he's also interested in this little project.

I'm happy that this thread has raised it's head again. Lots of nice "other" bikes you guys have.

I love riding my bikes equally, as they all serve a different purpose.

I'm not the only one on the Hybrid Forum with others. Some come on, you know you want to. Road, MTB, Recumbents, TT, Unicycle.....
Give us a look. BTW, just wait until you see what X-LinkedRider has.

Anyway, here's my Road Bike. The frame is a little old now, but I built it up to how I wanted it over the years.
It's an Orbea which is from the Basque region of Spain. Carbon forks, Mitis Aluminium, and Carbon stays. The saddle is a Fizik (you can see that lol) Antares Carbon Braided. The components are a mixture of Shimano Non-series, 105 and Ultegra, and the wheels (built by my friend) are Mavic Open Pro rims / DT-Swiss spokes / Black 105 hubs.












Gorgeous Orbea! But do you ride it? Everything looks so clean.

Can I ask, how do you like the Fizik saddle?

I saddle is fantastic but before you get one, fizik supplys authorised bike shops with the three basic styles as demos. The bike shop can guide you towards the one best suited to your hips / saddle bones.

I bought the Orbea in 2004 and yes I ride it. I have crashed it only once and lucky for the frame, it was undamaged (not a scratch) I though ended up in hospital as I remained clipped in. It is cleaned after every ride and ridden only on mountain roads, therefore, easily maintained.
