Oh - we're talking about new parts too??
Ha, this is me
29er wheels. In the early days, back in 2006ish, there were just Bontragers, then Pro2 with Halo rims then Stans / Hope which were silly expensive for my budget. Ever since have hoarded 29er wheels. Still have a loft full of the CRC close down £60 rear pro5 wheels of varying types. its silly really.
Tons of Hope stuff because its what I run and for me its so expensive to buy new. Tech 3 brakes, hubs, BBs headsets.
Loads of Thompson posts and stems, again as too expensive to buy new. The Stems aren't even that good really!
A huge box of Shimano XT and XTR 10 speed drive train stuff as I missed 11 speed and only now going 12 speed.
10 or 12 pairs of various high rise and alt-bars as I keep changing them.
Anyone else still have packets of stuff, chains etc with the light blue CRC Flood sale labels on them? when was that? 2002?
@scotroutes - that is impressive. I have a smaller scale set up buy that is **chef's kiss**
I'm also adding to my list above seat posts ... specifically Thomson. All the usual sizes in layback and straight, black and silver.
Not sure when I will need the 30.0 or the 29.4(?) again!

Do you have anything in 27.0 and silver I can take off your hands?
I’ve got loads of wheels! Does anyone have a surplus of 27.5 non-boost frames or 29 boost frames they want to get rid of? Then I can build a bigger bike for my eldest and a utility bike for work from my spare parts.
<Sighs>
Off the top of my head:
-Tyres galore (naturally)
-Random Wheels / Rims / Hubs / spokes (including a couple of Sturmey 3 and 5 speed jobs)
-At least three Frames and six Forks (but never quite a pair that actually go together)
-Lots of cassettes / bits of cassettes
-Short sections of chain (2-5 links)
-Saddles
-Single Grips (missing their counterpart)
-8 and 9 speed (rear) shifters
-(redundant) MTB Front Mechs
-The Upper/lower crowns and 20mm axle from a ~2003 RS Boxxer (but not the rest of the fork)
-Three children's bikes (16"/20"/24" wheeled) that I want gone, but would mean acknowledging my children are now teenagers...
I know I could probably lash together two or three franken/pub-bikes from the miscellaneous crap in the Garage, but I don't actually want to these days, I need to flog it all and convert it to cash to spend on things I actually want/need (or more tyres)...
