    At least you can look out and see your bikes. We normally have to park on the roof and have $40K of bikes in the back of the truck we can't see. :eek: I try not to worry about it and instead fantasize about my replacement bike if my current bike gets stolen :D

    There's usually 4-6 of us when we ride San Clemente Singletracks. Almost everybody's riding carbon full suspension bikes, most with Eagle drivetrains. There's one guy that rides out there every week on a 20 year old Specialized and he calls our group "The Doctors". :D

    Yeah, that's the worst feeling!!!
    I wasn't worried about their getting stolen here, just kinda' annoyed at the lack of something as simple as a staple or wave rack. If they wanted to get fancy, do something like this from Pacific Beach (all their restaurants are in beach towns, would be a good fit):

    All new development is required per Title 24 of the California Building Code to install bike racks. :thumbsup: Even new high-cube distribution warehouses must have them, you know, for those truckers who ride their bikes to work.:confused:

    Curious what is the most any of you have spent on a bike? For those who built from the frame up, count your first rideable iteration, not the endless upgrades.

    $3600 for me.

    Can't post it on a public forum. Might lose my pro deal.



    More than $3,000 but much less than $4,000

    Gulp, $4100 and that was a deal from Fadi. I remember when I started riding 10 yrs ago...a friend/ neighbor told me he spent 5k on his bike...I was floored! I thought I’d NEVER spend ANYTHING like that on a bike:confused:
    But I love my SC baby:inlove:

    $7000+ I want to say $7800 but to be honest, it may have been 77 or 74. Details get fuzzy as the years go by and the hits to my head increase. I do know it was my Pivot Mach 6 that was brand new in its heyday that cost that much. Nowadays, I either find a screaming deal on Pinkbike or get a close-out frame and build it up but they still ain’t cheap.

    I don’t spend money on anything else though. No coffee habits, I eat street tacos for 79 cents, no golf, I never buy clothes, my vehicles are paid off and all stock.

    Highly variable for me because I tend to keep a frame for a year or two and then move the parts (or as many of the parts as I can get to transfer over) to a new/different frame. When I do this, there is usually at least something I need to spend money on, including the frame, of course.

    The new HT that I am about to build is going to cost me this amount out of my pocket:

    *frame- $340/shipped
    *dropper- $234/shipped
    *protective tape kit- $28/shipped
    *headset- $67/shipped
    *fork decal kit- $15/shipped

    A whopping $684 for a new, quality built bike!!! :cool:

    Thanks!!!

    I am a super-dooper-bargain-shopper. I love to look for the best of the best deals out there. It takes time, but it pays (me) in the end.

    Yes, that's another part of the fun.

    The last part of the fun is riding it.
