Honestly, when I had my first two road bikes, I was constantly shopping around even though there was nothing wrong with them (or at least, not with the second one...the first one was too big). Every time someone posted a new bike photo - I was jealous and dreaming of my next bike.
Luckily, I no longer look at gorgeous bikes and feel envy. I admire them and potentially drool over them, but I'm so content with my current road bike that I no longer long for something better (and there are better bikes/components/etc out there). Maybe that's what having the right bike does for a person?
I would like to go full custom one day, but that day is so far into the future that it barely figures into my current consciousness.
