If you had to buy a full range of bikes from one single manufacturer, who would the manufacturer be?

I already have, so far. Whyte. But I fancy something from Niner in future.

Until recently 4 of my 6 bikes were Wilier.

Colnago.

I'd love to replace my Tarmac with a C59 or C60.

Would be nice to have alongside my Master Olympic.

I'd hate that! I'm assuming we're allowed several from the one manufacturer? I could probably have 3 from Kinesis and then a super carbon special from some other company...

I could quite happily have half a dozen bikes from Kona to cover everything I want to do.

Interesting. Worst bike I've ever owned was a Whyte. They must have improved to foster such loyalty.

I'd be extremely happy with all Genesis bikes. I have two at the moment, and am debating swapping my 'best' bike for a Zero, and the Volant for an Equilibrium Disc anyway.

Colnago, I have never ridden a Colnago MTB but even if it were a total dog I would live with for the road bikes........

Depends on the budget, but in the real world it would be Trek for me, since I know their 64cm road frame fits.

But I'd prefer to be shopping from Enigma. I think I could get what I need from their range, and have thm custom built to the correct size.

Good choice...I have 3 Colnagos at the moment and they are by far the most comfortable road bikes for me. If they ever make a Fat Bike I will swap mine for the Colnago version !!

What didn't you like?

I'm not a massive fan of roadies but this is sure to appeal to some people:



Instead, I'd prefer this (flat bars):



For trails:



Don't think I'll ever need a downhill machine (I'm too old) but someone might:

hehe

As the proud owner of a six speed raw lacquer super light, I can safely say it's exert bike you'd ever need. Providing you don't want to go off road, or do the Tour de France. Or not look like a bit of a wally.

There's few feelings in the world better than overtaking a fully kitted out roadie, when you're on a Brompton, up hill, with a commuting rucksack on, giving them a cheery "hello" whilst they can barely breathe.

I have 2 Genesis bikes and could happily add another two if I was pushed, but I would love a stable full of LOOK bikes, they are so well designed and made and tick all my boxes
