I don't want what i wrote to be taken to mean i have no appreciation for older bikes too...there was far more attention to detail and handcrafted skills back in the day....but people do seem to have a slightly clouded view of vintage sometimes.
When it comes to ride quality, which should always be more important than looks....a lot of modern frames ride far better than most vintage ones.
