    It's definitely an obsession. Especially when you come across that ultra rare ride that you couldn't afford back in the day. I love to see these old bikes get a new life. I also love to travel back in time on them to the golden age of MTB's.

    I’m living through you. I have tried building a collection several times but I literally develop mild anxiety about having bikes that I’m not regularly using. I have 4 bikes. One for each discipline (road, mtb, cx) with one extra alloy gravel bike for winter and Zwift. Sometimes 4 feels like too much for me. Im glad you have such a cool collection. Like I said, I’ll live through you. Thanks for sharing.

      Do yourself a favor and continue to keep it simple…when I raced, I had my “good” bike, an OLD bike for rainy day training and my CX bike…that was it….now that I don’t race anymore (and therefore don’t ride every day) I have accumulated 2 race bikes, 2CX bikes, 4 “vintage” bikes and assorted beaters (including a mtb tandem). Now I feel obligated to ride frequently just so I get to enjoy my various mounts (and for every ride I agonize over which to choose!). Truly a “first-world” problem!

    @karlnorgaard9447 8 місяців тому

    Im not a mountain biker. Im a roadie, but for several years now Ive been watching for a good 80s/90s rigid MTB to build up into a bike for me. Recently bought a PARAMOUNT, 90s neon splash paint. Couple dents though. Anyway, I think its a Schwinn. Nicely outfitted as I got it. Seemed mostly original, Deore, but had one of those shock absorbing stems. I think its called a Gervin or something. Pretty rad. I noticed you talking about the drop position on the one roadbike. Im quite flexible and have no trouble riding TT bars, in the aero position, or even on my forearms on the crossbar. That said, Ive noticed my performance isnt always improved in aero position, but being in the drops proper really does make a difference. Not only being a bit quicker, but taking a lot of fatigue from the hands, if even for short periods. I used to try slamming my stems as low as I could cuz I thought I was Gods gift to cycling and should show anyone I passed how much they suck, and Im awesome. Im more mature now, and maybe faster too. All 4 of my rideable bikes have had their stems raised at least 10mm this summer, and just set up my studded tire winter ride and added a spacer and its like a new bike. I love it now. Turns out, breathing is important. Thanks for the exhaustive tour. Love it. I used to collect, big time. I had frames all over the place, projects half done, you know. I thinned down, got 5 of my own. Only one of which is a modern carbon fiber bike. The rest are french and japanese vintage steel roadbikes.

    That's a great collection, and your having put so much time and effort into them makes them meaningful. I own only seven bikes. One is 42 years old, in pieces, and being rebuilt. One (a girl's 24" mountain bike) is whole but in need of an overhaul. It is only mine until I get that done, at which point it will given away. The other five range in age from 22 years to less than a year and are fully ride-able. No mountain bikes, no CX or "gravel" bikes. Just road and commuter bikes.

    Love the new BikeList site. I always favor ads for bikes with the FRAME SIZE in the AD’s TITLE. If it’s not gonna fit, none of the other awesome features matter. Right? Wall art is great, but like you, I ride all my babies! My info priority rank: 1. Category, 2. Size, 3. Make/Model, 4. Drivetrain/Components, 5. Price, etc…. Think of it this way. # 1, 2 and 3 are the non-negotiables . Everything else can be changed. Hope this helps. Happy pedaling! Can’t wait for your next video.

    hopefully bike list catch, however the pricepoints are horrendous- remember these are old used bikes with a lot life in them left. hopefully Bikelist over time can ensure the quality of the frame, steel is fixable- but not cheap, aluminium is also fixable- but super expensive and not so easy as steel.
    Glad to you put up your bikes at reasonable prices.

    There's a Klein Attitude listed for 8500. Wow. That's about the amount I paid for my 6 of my bikes. Inheritated the other two.
