It's kind of shifted. Basically, should I buy a second frame of a bike I already own so I have a backup that I can enjoy riding as much as my daily? Answer was yes. Thanks everyone for your input.

Sorry, but once you posted the question on the forum, the decision was taken out of your hands. We will give you the answer after another 6 pages.

I've been buying / wearing Adidas Sambas for the last 10 years. I keep an old pair for painting / construction and go through my daily pair every 2-3 years. Apparently, more than one of the same thing is a theme for me .
I'll build it up when I need it. I don't currently have enough room on the rack to store it but I have the space to keep a big box in my bedroom. It's a single speed so it'll only take ~20 minutes to build up. No need to worry about indexing gears and whatnot.

Anyways, I figured you can get these and double up your shoes too- https://www.adidas.com/us/the-velosa...es/FW4459.html

I cant imagine wanting to buy another of the exact bike when its a Wabi SS/Fixie. Just buy any older bike that fits and use it as a backup...it will be used what, like 2% of the year at most?

I saw Adidas put out the Velosamba. I definitely want to try out a pair when they're back in stock. If they're good enough, maybe I will buy two pairs ;P
