Unbuilt bikes? Are all your bikes rideable?

[Pickle]

Just browsing through some old threads, and looking at the pics of part build bikes.

How many of you currently have unfinished builds that you would be unable to ride?

This would drive me round the bend! But, having said that, I am about to become one with the Outpost frame :roll:

I think the longest I have had a bike I couldnt ride was the LTS, at about 2 weeks :?

So, what ya got that you cant ride?

I'm so bored - everythings done... not even any fettling required.

I might try riding one - see what thats all about.

I used to keep a stumpy and a Manitou HT in the bits cupboard... the stumpy has been built up now by its new owner after I sold it at the Bristol Bike jumble.

The manitou went to the same chap, but due to the usual manitou cracks I suspect its just wall art.

I've got the Clockwork and Karakoram K2 built up. The others are in bits (and/or for sale). :roll:

All 4 bikes fully built up & rideable (with a little air in the tyres probably on 2 of them)

i really must start buffing my manitou. the urge to chemical metal it into usability for one (gentle, road) ride is strong though.

manitou and kona are all i have at the mo, and the manitou is wall art (i finally have a wall to put it on now!)

I voted yes even though the answers no :? The ones not built don't have any plans to be built, not for a while anyroads, going to concentrate on refining what I've got for a while.

Voted No ,as it is very easy to buy frames .

but the aim is to have them built and rideable .

Mine is *just* rideable in that I only have one brake and it's a pants stx canti! Loads of others bits need doing to but I need to be patient.
