Is it nuts having 4 bikes??
1 Cannondale mountain bike. 1 Electra cruiser bike. 1 Trek Fx 3. 1 Specialized Rubaix road bike. Can't be normal?? 4 bikes? You guys?
|
I'm not sure how I could get down to only four...
|
Depends.
|

I mean there is a touring bike missing, a gravel bike, who knows what kind of mountain bike so you might need something else, some vintage bikes in the equation certainly need some steel and ti bikes, no fixed gears or singles speeds (except possibly a cruiser but nothing of performance orientation), I mean come on! |
You need a red bike; red is the fastest.
|
it's not nuts if you've got a roadie, a mtb, a gravel bike, a fixie or cruiser or foldie or whathaveyou. what's nuts is having 4 road bikes with very little versatility...guilty.
|
It’s not nuts.
Seems like you could even add a couple. |

Gravel, road, vintage, and mountain.
Now to get a modern gravel and convert mine into a tourer or commuter. Then my wife has 2 more, needs a third. Got two kids, they'll be old enough to ride soon. I don't mind the bikes. When we were up to 4 strollers and a Burley trailer, the garage felt small. |
Darn right it's nuts. You have NO Sturmey Archer hub. Preferably a RD5w. I rode mine 106.5 miles last Monday.
Easy as pie. And it's 78 lbs, LOL. |
4 seems like the minimum to be honest.
|
It's only nuts if your garage still has space to fit more.
|
Perfectly normal and room for more.
In order of arrival, mine are: 1999 Trek 26" MTB hardtail 2019 KTM Kapoho 29er E-MTB full suspension 2019 KTM Scarp Sonic 29er MTB full suspension 2019 Wilier Zero.6 Road bike 2020 Trek Madone SLR road bike Who knows what next year will bring? :lol: |
Absolutely NOT! 4 bikes is well within reason. 6, however, would be INSANE! :eek:
I have 5. :p |
You need to add a tadpole trike.
|
Road, Mountain, Gravel, Single Speed...considering a Fat Bike (largely because I have no intention of going back in a gym this winter).

If having four bikes is nuts, I guess I'm 25% beyond nuts.

You know this is a "BIKE" forum, right?

Good diversity but you need backups for each type.
|
The correct number of bikes is N + 1
