[Ahab]

i've had about 30+ vintage bmx bikes between 79 to 85 that are now gone but 1, my 84 p.k. and now i regret selling. but the money was good so do any of you have any that you regret getting rid of?

Let's see, my top list would be
1987 Schwinn Predator

Mosh Method 24"

The twisted lowrider

Schwinn Le Tour tourist

my Hawthorne twin bar

Hercules camelback

The bootlegger build bike

My Army bike

My JC Higgins 20"

my custom chopper

My recumbent

16" Hoffman

GT Interceptor

but most of all my 1979 Indian

I love seeing the bikes I sold out being rode by the new owners. Plus it gives me money to buy a new project.

Yeah I still miss it but I had an offer to trade it for a running moped and considering I got it at the flea market in a trade so I couldn't refuse. I've had a few deals like that, Traded the recumbent for a '62 Corvair Greenbriar van, traded the Indian for 2 '86 VW Jetta projects, The Hercules and Hawthorne went to a fellow member in a trade so I feel better about those, and the chopper I gave to a friend for finding me a great deal on a '96 sebring convertible for $600, kinda a finder's fee, the army bike I gave to a friend who needed a bike then it got stolen when he was in jail so keep your eyes peeled for it, the Schwinn le tour I got good money for and it was too tall for me to ride comfortably, and the predator I traded for the GT interceptor frame and fork, a complete GT performer, and $100

I had a coupa bikes I regret selling or given away...

They're in good friends' hands now,so I can still see them.

My main enjoyment is building them and I get too attached to them,but I dont have the room to keep them all.


Why couldnt I collect stamps or shot glasses...they take up less room.

I sold my 82 Haro Freestyler with original skyway mags and Haro vector bars.Hate I sold it but couldn't pass up on the offer....

 

[highship]

I thought for sure I would be able to come up with more but only two come to mind so I guess that's it...

 

[MORTUNDEAD]

I had a '41 hawthorne skiptooth with awesome truss forks. Traded for a '70s schwinn. I missed this bike so much, i bought my columbia to replace it.

 

[thatismytruck]

I really miss my old Westfield. Unc bought it and I shipped it to Texas, then Steve bought it from him. I think he sold it, too.

 

[Baron von Zach]

All of them. But I can't keep them all, either.

Dealy missed are my Falcon Panther fixie, which went from this:

to this:

And my Steyr, aka 'Alpine Racer' which went from this:

to this:

In the end it was a good thig though, because this is what I replaced them with:

I didn't really sell it but when I moved to one place around 91 or 92 I had to leave behind a white BMX with white wheel discs but I can't remember who made it.

 

[Wildcat]

Emory Super DeLuxe. I was given the chance to buy it back, but had too many bikes in the garage. That's what I thought then, but now I can fit another dozen bikes in there.

 

[benhiers]

I already posted I sold my 82 haro freestyler but I just found some pics of it.I will I still had it,but I couldn't refuse the offer.

 

[dogdart]

• Thought I'd revive this thead , since I had to sell these today . I hate selling any bikes :roll: But , I got a fair price for them , and needed the cash

 

[custombikebuilder]

Yeah the kicker was it only had 600 original miles!

 

[heyslugger]

Sold this yellow Worksman a couple days after I got it thinking I needed to get some room and $...turns out i really didnt need either as much as I thought I would because I totally missed this bike the instant it was being wheeled away.





its been replaced recently with this one which is in AMAZING shape but...it's just not the same. I'll keep it for a while and see how it plays!
