I did this. Now I have 11 fully functioning bikes and I can’t force myself to get rid of any of them LOL
What’s going on twitch the fork on the Schwinn!
That last diamond back is something sexy
Bridgestone City Bike mentioned! Let’s gooooo
Okay. The Kia and the Cannondale just look odd together. Like the Kia is giant SUV and the bike is tiny kids bike.
Man that Hahanna with the white Project2 and the glow in the dark decals is super cool.
Hellll yeah. Ive got a DB Ascent with the same exact paint as your Apex. Beautiful.
That Kona Hahanna looks like it was made for golden hour photos, the white fork with the glow decals is a nice touch. I went through a similar thing after my bike got boosted from my porch back in college, ended up with like 6 random frames crowding my apartment before I actually built anything useful. The road bike with the panniers is the one I’d grab first though, that thing already looks dialed for actual riding.
The yellow Diamondback in the last pic is clean too, those frames always look fast even when they’re just standing still.
I hear you on the “more than I bargained for” part. Free bikes sound great until you’re storing them in three different spots and your roommate is asking why there’s a Trek next to the couch. The Bridgestone is the sleeper of the bunch though, those things ride way better than they have any right to.
