So whats the bike you had BITD that you wish you had never sold ?
I will kick off with my Specialized s works fsr
Around 1994 ish i still had my beautiful Specialized m2 , one of the original 500 first made , kitted out with superlight everything it just flew , until an annoying little creak that i could not find turned out to be hairline crack in the seatube :pale:
I blame this on the thin shimmed USE ti post !
Anyway Spesh uk were amazing offering a replacement frame no quibbles , but they said if you fancy the new fsr with carbon judys you could have that !
Well why not i thought
built it up with what i had , out on the south downs for the first ride and hated it !! " what have done " 
It felt slow and heavy , it bobbed all the place , i just hated it .Not one to give up easy i stuck at it over time i changed bits got the set up right and learned how to ride it and totally fell in love with it , i could climb stuff on it that i could never make on the m2 plus my back thanked me for it !
After a few years and few more bikes in the stable i decided that i really needed a De Kerf , i found a used frame in that stunning green metallic and a deal was done , p/ex my fsr frame set and that was that .
Built the De Kerf with the what i had , which was pretty good stuff m950 etc and out on the maiden voyage , history repeated itself , i hated it
well maybe thats a bit strong but i just could not get comfortable on it , no amount of bar n stem or seatpost changing helped . I had to sell it but could never find an another fsr that was a patch on my old one . I replaced it with a Heckler in the end which was a great bike but never the same .
So thats mine how about yours ?
