I think that’s it, I guess that’s too many bikes…

 

[OddJob]

Thanks for putting all those up...I had no idea!

I was going to start listing my favorites, but when the number got to 5, I couldn't go any higher. .

holy smokes that's a lot of bikes.

That's a great herd of bikes! Out of curiousity, which are your favorite tires based on ride quality?

Thanks! I usually pick tires for appearance, but the ones with modern technology ride better. Fat franks are great, hookworms if they fit, thick slicks usually fit middleweight bikes even with fenders

I don't see a problem

i have them in a couple different locations so it doesn't seem that bad, but seeing them all at once like that makes me thing i may have too many...

Don't know american bikes well

That's a favorite of his for me! @The Renaissance Man @kingfish254 ideas on the frame manufacturer?

 

[kingfish254]

Killer collection!
If I remember correctly, I think that blue one is a semi-custom frame that used to belong to @Walker
I can't find the thread where Walker had it, but I refer to it in @idiotboy 's build thread
It's a transgender Colson looptail creation

yup Colson stepthrough gender swapped by Walker years ago, sold to me by Danimal at a swap meet a couple years back for $25, one of my best scores! I made the bike simple to highlight the frame, it actually rides great. Thanks Kingfish for linking to the build, I still haven't learned how to do that

Just cut and paste the URL web address from the build thread to the post you want to share it on.
