What is interesting to me is $25K is squat compared to other collectibles yet is a very difficult sell for a bike ridden by the Babe Ruth of cyclists. btw, a Babe Ruth game bat can run you $86K.
I agree. One of Jimmy Hendrick's Fenders used in a concert just sold for 225,000 British Pounds. So $25,000 for a
proven Merckx race bike doesn't seem unreasonable.
