i've mentioned in another video: a sturdy aluminum hardtail mtb with rack mounts and a jones h bar makes, for me, a kind of a swiss army bike. good enough for grocery shopping, commuting, bikepacking/travelling/touring, gravel, mountain single trail and taking your little child to kindergarten. don´t expect to smash any records but yours. two sets of wheels wold be sweet, though.

I think I'd go with a hardtail mtb with aggressive geo. It is enough to get through some of the tougher trails here, but a light wheel set makes it tolerable for commuting and mellower rides. It also feels indestructible and not like a target for theft.

If I were to sell all my bikes and keep just one… either my Flaanimal, which I run 29x2-2.1 most of the time, under fenders, with flat bars. Unfortunately I’m realizing I would benefit from a larger frame in such a configuration, so I’m selling it soon. I might get a second wheelset but tbh i hate adjusting my brakes every time which is inevitably a necessity. If I were to buy a new “one and only”, it would be either a Lauf Seigla (rigid or with the spring fork, i’m not sure), and set it up with a flat bar. That thing clears 29x2.35 apparently! I’d have to get creative with fenders, something like the MudHugger, and accept the shaming on group rides. That or a ti rigid ATB/hardtail set up very similarly.

Since I've already owned it for over 30 years, upgraded the moving parts, had Block bikes convert it to all around use for me, I would say my steel Giant ATX 780 from the early 90's. It came with Softride stem, Kona project 2 fork, Mavic SUP rims, and Cool stop brakes. It also has Schwalbe Marathon tires, and a mix of Shimano LX and DX components. It's a touch heavy, but so am I , maybe because I'm in my mid 60's with artifical knees, and a neck injury.. Plenty good enough for the Olympic Discovery Trail though...

So I went from 6 bikes to one. Two road bikes, a single speed, an enduro bike, a hardtail and a single speed hardtail. All of those down to a single steel frame gravel bike. That, on paper, was my perfect bike. Versatile, quick, handles mixed road and off road. Aaand yet - I just started cannibalising that bike to build my new (to me) road bike. The lesson to me? The one bike you should own is the one you want to ride. If you want to ride more, and can fund that? Great, enjoy. Just make sure you ride the damn things - there's no point in "garage queens".

I think the Midnight Special could be my only bike. I got one about a year ago and I love it. I don't have experience with a wide range of bikes though. Around the same time I got the Surly Ghost Grappler with the intent of having only one bike. I think I realized afterwards that if I'm going to have one bike, it needs to feel fast on the road or I'll be frustrated, because that's where I am on a daily basis. The Midnight Special can feel relatively fast on roads, while being great for gravel and capable of more, if not specialized.

Of course PDX has the situation where you have some great MTB trails in the area, but none of them are feasibly reachable by bike because none of them are in or even on the edges of the city. I think you can take a bus to Sandy Ridge, and T2T is absolutely reachable by bus, but Yacolt Burn, Post Canyon, Rocky Point, and Tilamook state forest are all unreachable by transit, and too far out to bike to.

IMHO, if you only run one bike, buy the bike that suits the riding you want to do, not necessarily what your local riding is (unless it's something silly like getting a big travel MTB in NYC). In my case, I live in Denver, I prefer MTB because cars are scarier than trees. Riding wise I live for the downhills and consider climbing to be a necessary evil and I travel to places like Whistler, Moab, Bentonville, etc. to ride at least a couple times a year and get a season pass for Trestle Bike Park. So for me the one bike is a 160/170 travel enduro bike (Rocky Mountain Altitude), it's a little overkill for front range trails, but really comes into its own in the bike park and in more exotic riding locales. If I N+1d the second bike would be either a gravel bike or an e-MTB (we have a lot of ebike friendly singletrack around here).

I used to have 13 bikes until some scumbags stole 6 of them. Forced to consolidate I gave away 4 to bike recyclers. Now I have normal and e-bikes: Normal (analogue) 2 MTBs (1 hardtail, 1 full sus), 1 CX bike, 1 gravel bike. E-bikes: 2 MTBs (1 hardtail, 1 full sus), 1 road/gravel. With this combination I can do anything. I live in a hilly part of the UK with access to mountains but also flat roads. It's taken a long time to arrive at this combination BUT I still hanker for the super light/aero road bike that the theives stole........so it's in full agreement with the N+1 equation. I have a favourite: the eMTB that is enduro biased and can do stuff way beyond my skill level. If I had only 1 that would be it. Thanks for the videos Dustin - always love the content.

No car. Reasonable roads. No ridiculous climbs. Verdict: either of my Peter Mooneys would do nicely. Early 2000s Campy 10 53/11 to 39/23 and skinny sew-ups, so not gravel bikes, but I've been a road dude for way too many decades. About the only change I'd make is lose the 11t and add an 18t. I think I have more fingers and toes than times I've been able to use the 11. I think I'd still want something more to fetch the groceries with.

I believe everyone deserves a beat up commuter bike (that you won't be upset about if it disappears on day) and a "real bike". So, I think we should settle on a two bike minimum rule.

I second the motion. Because this means I can keep my Wabi single speed when I get my geared all-around bike - a Ritchey Outback.

Question for thee: if you can fit a 700x48, or even 700x50 on the bike, would you still have your second wheelset be 650b? Or go for two identical 700c wheelsets?

Going from 32 to 48-50 on a 700 might mess up the geometry somewhat?

I live 10 minutes from epic desert, rocky rough mountain bike trails. But in my older age I just love that free feeling of going nowhere I prefer cycle paths or canals but roads are good. 3 stents in my heart and spinal stenosis means. “Marginal gains “ is my mottos. I’m buying that shirt right now. Anyway. I went from 8 bikes to 3 in the past few years. A surly lht. Tern node (24in folder) with a swytch ebike conversion kit and my one and only ohm discover pedal assist ebike. Don’t judge me. I love cycling and that gets me out there. Thanks for listening

Currently my one and only bike would be my RSD sergeant V5. It’s a 140mm travel hardtail MTB. It can fit 29er, 27.5, 27.5+, 29+, and even 27.5 x 4.0. It also has racks mounts and I could put a rigid fork on front plus it’s still a hardtail so it will still be somewhat efficient on road and gravel

You only need a rigid 90s chromoly mountain bike with 26" wheels, 3x7 drivetrain, and swept back handlebars. The bicycle was perfected in the late 80s. Everything done since then has cheapened up the build and made repairs overly complicated.

I mean if you're only riding pretty mild singletrack. I remember what "downhill" racing was in the 90s, we would call those green trails these days. A 90s MTB makes a great gravel bike though, though I think even modern gravel bikes might be better at singletrack than 90s rigid MTBs. On the road side, modern road bikes are quite a bit faster than a 90s road bike, though for non-racers that probably isn't an issue, though the modern road bike may also be more comfortable to ride.
