Concentrate on the finer stuff. Or a particular niche.

I tried the niche approach. Lets see, I will limit myself to just Panasonic built Schwinns, just the nicer ones. OK, so I get a 1973 World Voyageur. Then a 1986 Peloton, then a 1987 Prologue, then a 1991 Paramount Series 5, then a Paramount Series 7. And I still need a Volare. Oh, and the Peloton is the wrong size... And am I really going to push out the Colnago and Tommasini? And the Trek touring bike? Etc...

I've got to try another approach.
