I understand what you're saying... The two most ridden bikes for daytime rides are my Peugeot UE-8 (I've put tons of money into that gas-pipe bomb, because I wanted an IGH test bed) and my Schwinn Collegiate with a Sachs P5. For night riding I ride my Cannondale. That'll probably change once I get suitable lighting for the Peugeot or the Schwinn. Of course, I just bought an IGH for the Cannondale and that'll probably end remaining my night-time rider.
Anyhow... I've not flipped anything yet, but though I might flip some stuff, but after working on them and riding the ones I've messed with so far, I'm inclined to just keep them. I've spent far too much money for them to be a money-making proposition.
