Bikes you've sold along the way

£175, bought it for £150.

corr that's alot of bike for £150.... i really want a singlespeed dirt bike, but no space and my p3 is vertical dropouts so for the sake of a chain tensioner i reckon i might as well keep the gears.

There's no dirt around where I live. Only construction sites.

After my current cull:

This one's on Tenerife now (wheels with Xander)

The hed3 is now with Old Skool Racer. I still have the DIsc wheel and the Zipp

This is my all time favourite MTB, 1991 (back in the day) I think:

It got stolen out of our shed, I'd have another in a heartbeat.

I 'gave away' this bike in my first year of uni:

I got there and realised I'd left the keys to my lock at home. Thought that in my campus, in a covered bike rack with CCTV, put next to another bike as if it was locked up and with no-one around, it would be ok for five minutes while I ducked into the library and printed something out. It wasn't.
I'm still gutted about it five years on. Saved up for ages for it, had some good times in the forest, and I still think about it everything I come back to my parents' place.
Obviously the fault lies with me for not locking it (and the cunt who stole it), but the 'security' people at uni were useless. They told me the CCTV didn't really show anything, but wouldn't let me look at it. If I'd been a bit more savvy then, (apart from not leaving my bike unlocked), I'd have scoured Ebay and Gumtree and checked round Brick Lane and local bike shops. I still have the key for its Pinhead locks. I hope the thief cut his fingers off trying to saw off the bolts.

Also had these in my less-than-illustrious bike history, none of which I particularly regret selling - apart from the money I could have made on the Raleigh

The Peugeot was a pretty standard gaspipe jobby, but it reawakened my interest in cycling as more than a means of getting around, and led me to these and other forums, so I suppose I owe it a lot. It paid for my new Holdsworth as well.
And an orange Create, that I was too embarrassed to take a picture of. Terrible terrible bike, in three months I snapped two cranks, a pedal and about 8 spokes. Absolute piece of shit.

that second bike, i think someone at my college owns it. was the buyer a young blonde guy?

No, a guy who was probably about 30 with dark hair. He's at Goldsmiths though, is that your college?

^ hehe professional sales activity doesn't count =))

^^I miss the TI VanTuyl in there.. Still regret not buying that one..

I'd call it a hobby gotten out of hand, because (it is not very profitable and) if it was my profession, I would have had to move to a shed/garage/hole in the ground to live in ;)

sweeeeet

^^ straight to the porn thread

first fixay.... although the frame was too small, i really regret it, was an awesome bike...

Nice!

too small? really? look right in proportion...

i've built that bike when i was 16, was size 52, i think i've grown a little since then (19 now), currently riding a 54cm tarck frame, fits perfect....:)

Feeling some nostalgia today. The bikes I sold last year:

ED HAS SPOKEN

Go get that bike back!

was just thinking of this thread today...
not sure if this was here, but anyway

sold in another build, but then sold the wheels
just kept cranks and seatpost (Team Edition!) and saddle (track champion and recordswomans!)

That was very nice.
