Any bikes you're just sick of seeing?

I don't wanna insult anyone's pride and joy here...this is most likely a product of my surroundings, and the truth is if something wasn't good/popular then i wouldn't see it so much anyway. But, all that aside, i'm really sick of seeing mid school (late '90s) Haro Dave Mirra's and Backtrails and all those. Don't get me wrong, they're decent bikes, i even own a Mirra 540 that i bought brand new BITD, but man those things are on my local Craigslist everyday without fail. I'm just sick of seeing them. Good bikes though, they rode pretty decent for being an overbuilt battleship of a bike.

Here's a pic of mine years ago when it was all still in one piece (besides the pegs and brakes). That was how i ordered it from the LBS...Primo Mustache bars and a Redneck. That SOB was over $600 lol

To each their own and I'm sure the Dyno and Dayglow GT guys don't like Vectors and Diamondbacks but I could go the rest of my life without ever seeing a Dyno or Dayglow GT.

Not really, maybe just department store bikes, but even then if there in NOS shape from BITD there kind of cool.  To each is own.

I wasn't even familiar with this variety, but if I never see another twin top tube Master, I won't miss them. I respect them for what they are - just seen waaaaaaaaay too many in the last two years to get excited about them anymore.

Re: Any bikes you're just sick of seeing?

The Sunday bikes that are all 1 color.   

But the op is right about those mid school haros.  They are usually all over the NYC CL.


"The wolf does not lose sleep over the opinions of sheep."

Buying or trading for ANYTHING related to New York regiments of the civil war.  Particularly the 6th NY Heavy Artillery.  Everything I own is on the table for this stuff.  Pictures highly sought!
