It's around 30-35year old Steel Frame Merida bike that I paid 40 Euros for several years ago.
I use it pretty much every single day to go around the town & go to Shop.
Fairly Comfortable & Reliable, with decent tyres it rolls VERY nicely and does everything it needs to do. At 12kg Also not very heavy.
Can be left outside pretty much anywhere as no one is going to target it +Used in Any Weather without a worry.
I also have an eBike and another fairly expensive Bike, but this one is used like 80% of the time – Just Feels Nice not to have to worry about anything and it does the same job.

I’t pretty decent; love the long lasting cantilever brakes!
I use a similar bike made by Rocky Mountain in 1997 and fitted with front + rear racks to haul stuff
It’s not my most used bike but I still ride and maintain my 2009 26″ with front suspension. It’s mainly a grocery shopper these days but rides super smooth.
I dig it. Got a favorite pair of shoes too.
Yeah, my winter bike is an old steel Raleigh hybrid. Someone could easily look at it and think I am very poor.
Put SRAM Red on there, then no one will laugh at you!
Ok that’s it, I’m getting a vintage mtb like yours before Christmas.
That’s just a bike.
