I'm mostly a buyer rather than a seller myself. Frankly the bikes I own were never an investment, and I'm glad of that. To me, a fine vintage bike brings me the same joy as art, which is what they are. They are a blend of art and utility. Something lovely to behold and admire. I don't know if contemporary cycles will, or will not, be as revered as old steel is today in 40 years. Maybe our lightweight steel beauties from the 70's will be totally unappreciated. I hope not.
