i want to build up my collection to a ironhorse sunday and an sx trail. I have a stab supreme right now. . . .
That would be pointless. They're so similar. If you were going to do 2 bikes get a Sunday or whatever DH bike you decide on and an Enduro or something with at least a double chainring and air suspension. Why have a DH bike and then a mini-DH bike (kind of), each with 1 ring up front, coil suspension, and about 40 pounds?

Demo 9
Enduro

The problem is that I tend to ride the D9 everywhere. Oh well, good to have choices.

Yeah, I kind of do that with my 8 and enduro.

my husband and i were just discussing yesterday that having 8 bikes in the house was too many bikes. but what can you do?
me
sc bullit (downhill)
khs 904r (xc)
spec. p1 (bmx track)
trek 6000 (permanently on the trainer)

husband
ironhorse sgs (downhill)
giant vt-2 (xc)
spec. p1 (bmx track)
old khs mtn bike (permanently on the trainer)
That's funny my wife and i were recently discussing that we don't have enough bikes so i ordered another with 1 more in the planning soon

What we currently have:
Me:
03 Intense Tracer - The trail bike has seen many many miles and will see many more
Woodman Elite - 4X, BMX, and Street
Marin Quake AL7 (but with a 36 vanilla up front) - Downhill, freeride, etc...
Electra Black Beauty - just a plain ole basc cruiser I one at FTBW last year
Coming soon - On One Gimp Single Speed

The wife:
2005 Specialized Fsr - XC/Trail
Giant STP - 4X, BMX, and Street. The frame is actually a bit long so we will be replacing it shortly with another Elite or a 03 Specialized SX
Banshee Chaparal (04 frame, mainly 05 and 06 components) - Downhill-freeride. This was mine but we decided we both needed DH bikes
Specialized Hardrock - Old beater hardtail, been neglected for awhile but about to be reborn as a singlespeed/commuter bike
Felt Road Bike - her first high-end bike, she was in the process of building this up when we met but as soon as she discovered mountainbiking any thoughts of long road rides and triathalons quickly left her head, now she just uses it occasionally to ride back and forth to school

sick selection of road bikes that collect dust cause djs and pump tracks are more fun even if the inevitable happens frequently

I like bikes and would have more if it wasn't for the whole money thing, a sweet cruzer might be my next project!!
