What's your current "dream" bike?
My current bike is awesome, and will probably outlast me. But I can't help but window shop :)
Note, I'm not buying this. I don't have the money. BMC Team Machine SLC01 looks pretty amazing. No internal cable routing, but i understand this is for weight savings. with RED, it would be a $6,000+ dream, but a cool one nonetheless. check out the competitive cyclist review. I like that BMC's don't have the swoopy fluid look of the Weiler/ Bianchi / Orbea, or sloping top tubes like a Tarmac. Industrial / skeletal design, exposed non-cosmetic - Cool stuff. http://www.bmc-racing.com/int-en/bik.../standard.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StkgPLdWARU http://exitcreative.net/blog/wp-cont.../slr01_600.jpg so what's yours and why? if you feel compelled to post your feelings about how some people have "too much money and should ride more" do it elsewhere please. |
i dont know if its necessarily my dream bike, but this will be my next bike, built with record-11 and handbuilt wheels.

It used to be a Pinarello Prince, but now I've moved up to a Dogma with Di2.

+1 for BMC. I'm a noobie and I ended up getting a 2010 CAAD9-4, no slouch of a bike and 1000x better than the 1990's vintage Ross bike was riding prior. But if I had the money I'd definitely go for BMC.
Close second would a Pinerello or Cervelo. |
Project California, with Red, and a set of the new Reynolds wheels.
|
My current bike because it fits, rides great and looks nice. BMC makes nice bikes and that Team Machine is a looker; I have a BMC as well and love riding it as much as my Orbea.
|
Time RXR, Reynolds or Edge wheels:
http://a10.idata.over-blog.com/0/02/...i-time_rxr.jpg Probably pick the white one, though the black VIP model is also appealing to me... https://www.wheelies.co.uk/Images/Pr...1319-71325.jpg Though if it came down to it, I'd pick the one that has that motor Fabian Cancellara was using. ;) |

that Time above is cracklin' hot but this is still my dream! |
|
BMC Racemaster with Red.
|
The one I ordered from C'dale 3 months ago. Seems like a dream right now. 2010 Supersix frameset, red group. I guess the dream would be upgrade to 404's (or equiv), Si/Sl crank with Cinqo PM.
|
When it comes time to get yet another Pinarello......................the carbon Dogma.
My current dream bike is still treating me too good to be cheating on her. Top of the line Pinarellos are worth every penny IMO. |
pft... I'd be pretty darn happy with about anything 2500-3k could buy... unlimited budget? I can't argue the beauty of the pinarello, they sure are purdy...
|
BMC Team Machine for me, or the Impec
|
I couldn't even pick just one.
|
The finished product of what we're currently building for me.
|
I'd like a 650c bike in a proper 51cm size.
or a light weight 26" wheeled bike that has road geometry. |

Independent Fabrication Ti Crown Jewel, Super Record 11 with Lightweights. In the mean time, I'll have to make due on my BMC Race Master, Velo Vie Vitesse 100, Torelli Express, Litec Mg, Colnago C40, Look KG 386, Tomasso Super Legerra Ti, Moser Scandium and Ciocc COM 12.5.

I like to keep it, kinda, simple. |
I don't dream about a bike, I ride my fricken bike.
|
I have a few (and there are 7 days in a week, right!) and these are not necessarily in any order.
All will be in a matte (or gloss) black colour with (unsubtle decals so they don't stand out like a sore thumb) with Dura-Ace and a light weight wheelset for climbing. Serotta HSG Custom Carbon; BMC Impec (ONLY THE BLACK ONE); Wilier Superleggura; Baum (or insert something better here) Custom Ti - (unpainted & polished); Specialized Project Black; Scott CR1 Team (with upgrades :) ); Colnago EPS. Do I really only have to choose these - Can't I have more!!!!!!!!!! |

I have to keep my dreams semi-attainable for now, and I have permission from the wife to get this bike if I reach my fitness goals for this year. It looks to be a decent ride and I like the Madone framesets that I have ridden so far. I'm not sure on the Force groupset as I have not used Sram yet, but for an all around fast road bike, this would be sweet. I really like the new look for this particular Madone too.
