I like building bikes. always have. building restoring, and flipping. this one I lucked out. given a frame someone else was gonna toss out. fixing the issues it had. painting and building. had a total of $60.00 put into the whole build. sold tonight for $300.00. I'd keep em all if I could, but we don't live in the land of the free. contrary to popular belief. What was the bike you wish you still had or never sold or however you loss it. tell me about the one that got away…

Kept almost every single bike I’ve owned.
Sold an early t1 Ruben (short tt) sold a mutiny mystic to a customer, had stolen a Standard STA, and later on a T1 progression.
I buy, fix, and sell a lot of guitars. Can’t keep them all, and there are always more guitars (bikes in your case) to buy, enjoy, and sell. I get paid for my time and skills, and someone else gets a great playing guitar. Keep doing what you’re doing and keep shit out of the landfill.
Bikes I should have kept: Sunday Second Wave, S&M Dirt Bike, Hoffman TAJ, Homeless Mack, Haro Sport, Dave Mirra s351 pro, GT Pro Series Team, S&M built Stranger Dream Machine.
I’ve only ever sold one bike that was ever…nice, and it was a Sunday 29″ I bought new, threw some frosting at, and decided I needed gears for more go fast. Sold it to fund a mountain bike.
