1989 Specialized Rock Combo (limited production run of about 500). I took it out of the box and built it myself. All original bars, wheels, group, bearings, crank and brakes. Of all the bikes I've owned, this is the most versitle. Knobbies for fire roads and slicks for the road.4yr ⋅ oldfrancis ⋅ r/xbiking
I really appreciate how so many cars give me extra room and consideration when I'm hauling my precious dirty clothes to the laundromat.4yr ⋅ oldfrancis ⋅ r/xbiking
Saved an abandoned Schwinn Cimirron from rust death. One day in and it rides well enough to haul groceries. Cost: free.4yr ⋅ oldfrancis ⋅ r/xbiking

I know, I know, not quite xbike but, bear with me... I present my old Bianchi Axis. It came with knobbies from the factory. It was my snowbike, trailbike and, with a change of tires (as you can see here) a great commuter and touring bike. I sold it in 2007 to a nice lady in Seattle.4yr ⋅ oldfrancis ⋅ r/xbiking
