I haven't spent nearly as much saddle time on mine as I would like, and I'm in the act of passively selling it (waiting for someone I know won't abuse it and knows what its worth). I spend way more time on my Orbea Onix and my Motobecane Fantom 29er.
My son rides a Raleigh Rushhour. Nice entry level bike, but how do you stand that hard narrow seat! I prefer my Raleigh retro classic coaster with it's big ass springer seat!
I'm an avid mountain biker, but love hitting the roads as well.
In addition to my main roadie, I have this fixie to beat up on the roadies with 48:16 gearing, and it's actually my favorite bike. So Simple! Nothing goes wrong. I've done a century or 2 on it.... makes it hard!
I know it's not the same, and I'm not a real hipster, but I love my single speed mt. bike. I don't think I'll ever go back to gears on a mt. bike. Spent a week hitting most of the parks around Pittsburgh, PA this summer and I almost always was able to fight through the worst hills I came across. Most of the times I stalled out and had to walk were due to poor technique or having to slow up for someone in front.
Thats a sick bike! One of my buddies has a Giant Bowery.
My fixed gear is my only form of transportation while I'm building my CB and I ride almost 30 miles a day just cruisin from one side of to the next. Ratio: 50:16 and I'm hopefully getting a 53t chain ring soon 8)
Lets keep this thread going I know there are more of you on here who ride!

I'm only rockin 48:17 gearing, so you more of a man than I. Would like to build some 20 or 24 spoke wheels with novatec hubs and Velocity aerohead rims, might be a while before i get to that though. Did get so bullhorn on it though
Wow xtpx, that's a bunch of cool bicycles you've built there! Im busy on my first fixed gear bike right now. Its in the "other projects" section. Plan on using it mostly for Critical Mass rides and fun rides etc... I do a bit of road riding, but for me MT biking is my passion.
You guys are gonna get me in trouble. I had a fixed gear "racer" looking bike back in the late '70s when all my friends were getting real 10 speeds. Here I thought I was crazy for wanting one today.... But haven't rode my Cannondale Mt Bike in years so figured what's the point.
