Of the 3 there is no mystique. Sell all and hold out for a Colnago.

Yeah, we're not exactly talking grail bikes here. A Colnago would be nice for sure, but not what I'd want for commuting, touring, gravel, etc.

As much as it pains me to suggest this - I have to weigh in on buying new. I just started helping out at an LBS and had no idea how big the whole "gravel grinder" fad has become. I'm not looking to buy myself, but if I were now is certainly the time. Given your lack of space there's a lot of benefit to owning new, starting with low maintenance and lower risk of component failure.

I personally bought a new Surly Cross Check as a commuter this summer, and have been very pleased with it as an all-rounder that I don't feel compelled to keep spotless. Raleigh, C'Dale, Jamis and many others are debuting really very nice bikes this year, many with disc brakes, some with the new SRAM hydraulic disk/brifters.

My free advice, and worth every penny.

Just took some recent pictures of these three. Maybe it's the angle, but the Civia looks really awkward in the picture for some reason. It also needs to have the cockpit adjusted. That's a 130mm 0d stem that I'll probably swap for a 110mm -10d. The bars are a little too high for my liking right now.

So here's what we're dealing with:

Raleigh:


Schwinn:


Civia:

And for those suggesting selling all of them and getting something new, that's definitely an option. I just ordered a Surly Straggler for my wife to replace a Schwinn Voyageur and Miyata 610.

The deciding factor for her, you ask? The Surly is purple...nothing else mattered.

Aesthetically, the Schwinn (your Schwinn) is my fave. I cried a little over the Miyata...

Keep the Colnago.

Have you thought about selling your wife and her bikes to make more room for you and your bikes? Just throwing that idea out there for your consideration.

In these cases I always apply the Ride-Wife-Conjecture (scientifically proven, of course), which states the following:

In cases when the bike herd must be thinned, the determining factor of whether or not to keep a member is based entirely on comparison to the usage of the wife. So if a member gets ridden as much or more than the wife is ridden, the herd member stays. If the member is ridden less than the wife is ridden, the member must find a new herd.

Ha, what's wrong with the Miyata?!

List all 3 on Craigslist at a slightly optimistic price, then keep the one that sells last.

You sold it!! ��

Ooooh...not yet, actually. She's in the classifieds, patiently waiting for someone who will treat her right.

Triple-butted, splined tubing? Delish!!
