I guess “Gen X” is pretty close to being “old people” now...

There’s a time where something that is modern becomes old fashioned BEFORE it becomes classic or timeless.

Most young people I’ve seen on older bikes have them as hand-me-downs or as opportunistic inexpensive bikes. Not as searched out specific objects. There’s tons of reasons to fall into to C&V-
