I have framesets I have nearly all the pieces for, do I finish them to see if I like the ride or do I cut them loose unfinished? Others are complete just needing rebuilt but are they worth rebuilding only to find I don't like them? Besides all being tall frames and hard to sell anyway the local vintage bike market is all but non-existent right now.
It's not that I've lost interest in any of them, I haven't. That's what makes it so tough. I just have more than I can realistically finish. Something has gotta go, but what?
I hear you. I have more bikes than I can ride, more projects than I can complete, and other things upon which I need to focus. I am probably going to give away most of them.
