Maybe it's just me but riding anything pre-1960 seems to be a waste of time.
If you break it, theres like no way you're going to fix it.
Stuff like old BBs and Cottered cranks make me cringe.
The vintage aesthetic is the only thing I can think of that would make you want to ride one.
It's like running a 486 when you could run at least PII-300.
The hardware just isn't practical.
That is all.
