goldendesign Posted April 21, 2021 Share #1 Posted April 21, 2021 My bike, I bought used, a 2006 Lemond Tourmalet, ten years ago and it was a closet queen. Even had the stock tires. I've put about 20k miles on it on my reckoning. About 4 of those years i was off for one reason or another. Tires, wheels, cables, etc... all have been replaced. The saddle is original though and my LBS mechanic remarked it was the comfiest saddle he's ridden on a Trek. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razors Edge ★ Posted April 21, 2021 Share #2 Posted April 21, 2021 Pre-Strava is a big ???? but since starting Strava in 2010 or '11, there is data . If I remember to track a rental bike ride (rare) I have a bucket for it. The Roubaix is a 2007, so that is missing several thousand miles. The Diverge is a year old soon (but back in VA right now), the Tarmac is from 2016 (just turned 5 on March 23rd), and the Trek is mid-90s, and was a daily commuter without any miles tracked except when I take it off road for non-commuting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted April 21, 2021 Share #3 Posted April 21, 2021 I received my bike in January 2012. I didn't start tracking mileage until 2013 so I have a missed 14 months of miles. I now have 17,600 miles. So like you, close to 20,000 miles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisL Posted April 21, 2021 Share #4 Posted April 21, 2021 Oh wow I don’t track it that closely. I’m gonna guess somewhere around 10K on my Bianchi, maybe 5K on the now retired Fuji crosser, a couple of hundred miles on the Ritchey that replaces it and maybe 1K on the Anthem. For the past 10 years or so I have alternated between a road bike, cross bike & MTB so the miles get spread around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted April 21, 2021 Share #5 Posted April 21, 2021 My current road bike (2 years old) has about 4000 miles on it, my previous one that died was 4 years old and had about 6000 miles on it. My commuter which is 10 or 11 I do not track as close and have about 10,000 on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr Posted April 21, 2021 Share #7 Posted April 21, 2021 10 minutes ago, Razors Edge said: Is there a story around this???? Yes. Climbing a hill, 8% grade, and unbeknownst to me one of the bolts on the inner chain ring had loosened. When I went to the small ring and stood to apply power, the ring was off centered which basically folded it 90 degrees. As it spun around it cut into the CF chain stay, and down tube and the seat tube. It was going to cost up to $1000 bucks and six to eight weeks to repair the frame. At my wifes insistence I bought a new bike. I still have the busted frame plus all the integra components. I want to someday find a good frame and build it again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsharr ★ Posted April 21, 2021 Share #8 Posted April 21, 2021 most have a lot of miles on them but not many recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groupw Posted April 21, 2021 Share #9 Posted April 21, 2021 My OCR1 had around 20,000 on it when I sold it. My Stradalli has 6,000. My commuter has about 10,000. MTB has about 1300. I probably gave the MTB more attention in the last year once I got the rear wheel true and found it's a great bike to take when I visit my mom.

jdc2000 Posted April 22, 2021 Share #10 Posted April 22, 2021 30,000+ on each of 2 road bikes. An unknown amount on various other bikes, probably at least another 5,000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted April 22, 2021 Share #11 Posted April 22, 2021 I don't track that, a few hundred? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeman564™ Posted April 22, 2021 Share #12 Posted April 22, 2021 The CAAD 10 miles are not accurate, because at first I did not upload everything to Strava, but it's very close. The Schwinn Aluminum is also not accurate because no Strava in 1990. I use this as my trainer bike now, but it has ≈65,000 on it. The CAADX and FAT are accurate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffJim Posted April 22, 2021 Share #13 Posted April 22, 2021 I’ve stopped riding. Maybe I’ll get back to it. Approx 6000 miles on mine. Trek Pilot 1.0. 2009 cross country trip was 3842 miles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
