A small list of mountain bike "wants" that would flip my "desirable switch", if and when I go hunting for bicycles. 1) biplaner forks, 2) bullmoose handlebars, 3) splatter paint jobs from the late 80's early 90's, 4) suntour thumbie non-indexed shifters, 5) early lugged frames, 6) stumpjumpers (because reasons), 7) smoke chrome Schwinn High Sierras (because reasons), 8) obscure, higher range mtb's from the late 80's/earlier 90's (I've seen a few, for fairly reasonable prices, but never ended up with any of them). I know rigid mtb's are good as commuters and graveler converts, but I don't really have those needs... so that's sorta held me back from purchasing them.
