Carbon bike and other 2 wheeled goodies.

I've got a love for cycling and pretty much spend all my money on bike related stuff. Heres my stable, any body else ride on here?

First off my brothers full carbon road bike. I get to "take care" Of this beauty for the 8 months out of the yr he's away at college.


Then theres my heavily modded Iron Horse Yakuza Aniki freeride bike, that I take to the lift serviced places, put on boddy armor and throw my self down the slopes holding on to this thing.


Then next there is my daily driver if you will. This is the bike I end up spending the most time on. Most often around 5 times a week Im riding this guy on local trails. Its a custom build steel framed, fully rigid, single speed (One Gear) bike I built to take the abuse of my fat arse.

I just started biking again this past summer. Bought my girlfriend and I bikes so we could do a healthy activity together. I didn't think I would ever mod my bike, but your right it is addicting! I started off with a bone stock 2007 Trek 3700 and 1 month after buying it added a Bontrager Aluminum Core Construction Carbon Seat Post, Bontrager Race Lite Luxe Saddle, Bontrager Race Stem and Crowbar Handlebars, Rock Shox Psylo SL Fork, Lizardskin Chainstay, Bontrager Race XXX Carbon Bottle Cage. Hope to upgrade the brakes, crankset, gears, pedals, derailer etc. next summer. Damn you biking!

Yeah it really is an addiction. Sounds like you've got a nice set-up there. I used to have a Rock Shox Psylo on one of my old hardtails. It was a great fork.

Yeah it may not be the most bling bling of the bunch, but its my personal favorite as well. It also can take quite a beating and not break down. It's my biking version of a work horse.

It so true when they say on bike forums that your better off buying a more expensive bike then modding a cheaper one. If I knew I was going to spend all this money on upgrades I would have bought a $700-$900 used Full-suspension bike like a Trek Fuel or Liquid.

I love mountain biking, but haven't gotten out much in a long time. I ride mine to work once in a while now though. Anyway, its a Haro V2, nothing too fancy.
