So I bought a Miele frame almost 2 years ago to fill a hole from a bike stolen 30 years ago. At the time I overbuilt it with a bunch of plastic bits and a woundup fork. It was a dissapointment... It just didn't ride like good steel should, and I really wasn't digging the aesthetics either. Something was off, so I took it apart and left it alone for a year until I decided to build it up to let it go...
I rebuilt it with a chrome fork and alloy to replace the plastic... And now it's right.. It rides beautifully with that familiar elastic feel that good steel gives.. And the aesthetics are finally pleasing..
But now what?!! I don't need or want another vintage bike.. I've got some really nice bikes.. Some exceptional. I don't want to sell it though! Something has to give.



And now a picture of my small one car garage...

I also have a pinarello, vitus 992 and a Canyon Ultimate Evo in the basement..
Something has to give... I've already sold a titanium framest and a specialized Venge this year.. But which to sell?
