first failure in 15,000 miles 3 Months ago  
My Roadie just experienced it's first failure. One of the passing lamp bulbs blew out. Even with that the maintenance bills still don't add up to 100 bucks. This is my fourth summer riding this beast and I still step back and stare at it everyday. The maintenance bills will go up some next year with the need of new rubber but that doesn't count as any bike would need that.

27,500 miles here. Only replaced tires and brake pads. Everything else I've changed has been for preference.

Awesome bikes!
