I discovered some time ago that rather than having many things I'd rather have a few high quality items, and in terms of security, I have the advantage of parking my bike in a bike cage which is located in a secure underground parking garage, My long term plan is for 3 bikes to cover all my riding needs MAP Semi Custom 650B Rando (frame is on order wait time is 2 or 3 more months, after that it will likely take me another 6 months to collect parts and build it) - this will become my goto bike for most riding (the tubing spec and my planned build it up is in the spirit of an all rounder/light errand runner as opposed to an event bike) Betty Foy redo - this will be my grocery getting/dog transporting/errand bike - should be ready in a few months Roadeo - will switch back and forth from single speed (my preferred riding come fall) and go fast/event bike - I am not sure I really need this bike in my stable but won't sell until I stop riding it I. I know I would be just as well with a cheaper SS bike to cover fall/winter riding (should have never sold the SimpleOne, and the semi custom would be fine for charity events, but I have the Roadeo so I'll keep it awhile On Monday, September 9, 2013 3:43:29 PM UTC-4, Cyclofiend Jim wrote: > > Nice setup Trevor! > > It's funny, on both my Hilsen and Quickbeam, I ride them for a while and > then just have the urge to tweak things.
