More of an ebb and flow.
I bought my Battaglin used back in 1996. I was relatively new to cycling and went through all sorts of issues with the fit. First I thought it was too small, then I thought it was too big.
Eventually, I converted it to a single speed. I got a couple of other bikes and the Battaglin ended up in the basement for 5 years.
In 2015, I rode the DD and needed a "hill bike", so I built up the Battaglin. Been riding it almost exclusively for the last 2 seasons.
