Good question. I kept the Stay Strong BMX that fit me best of the 2 (only 1/2" different in the top tubes, but I felt the 20.5" just jumped and manualled better than the slightly bigger one). The park BMX went as my son has stopped wanting to go to the skate parks on his scooter so I couldn't see that it was going to get used enough to keep.
Would have loved to have kept the Cinelli over the crude Gary Fisher fixed, but the GF has bottle mounts so for longer rides and winter training it's better suited. Shame as the Cinelli is genuinely amazing to ride.
The rest just had to go so I could start again. If I'd paused too long I'd have been able to convince myself to keep each and every one of the outgoing bikes as they're all amazing. In fact I did start to waver on all of them at one point or another, but I just decided that I'd made a plan and had to stick to it. The Demon tourer would have been easy to convince myself to keep as it was the only one with rack mounts (and it's a bloody work of art), but this year I toured with Apiduras on Sven, so decided it wasn't immune from the cull.

That is/was an impressive array. How did you decide what was to stay, and what to go?
