This starts a never-ending cycle: tinker a bit, swap some parts, build some wheels, tinker some more, discover you have enough parts to build another bike... buy a frame, tinker a bit, swap some parts, build some wheels, tinker some more, discover you have enough parts to build another bike... buy a frame, tinker a bit, etc. etc. I was up to 10 bikes before. I've sold off 4 this year, but I've got another headed my way. I'll tinker a bit, swap some parts...
MAKE IT STOP!! PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!!
