Why do I have so many? I can't even remember buying any!
Weight. I have far to much many.
tyres... I rekon I have about 9 for my 29er !
outgoings
Debt. Much too many.
Frames, need to sell
lbs.
Edit: too slow
little spanners for bleeding my shimano brakes. I keep losing them before i can use them. End up buying another and losing that before i can do the bleed. Last time i bled the brakes i used a tiny cable tie and a pair of pliers to achieve what i wanted
I've bought 5 now!
stems and gloves
Broken rear lights. No idea why I keep them.
popups.
😈
tyres, both types.
a pile of 26" maxxis and Conti's that I can't give away.
Spare tyre around the mid riff that's proving equally difficult to shift.

I have too many copies of the same post.
Crappy failed Apple lightning cables and bags. I'm the Imelda Marcos of soft luggage.
Mavic rims - counted last night and have 13 spare rims from the heady days of v brakes - 517's, 519's, 521s and even a pair of 618's.
Also stems. And bars. And grips. And front mechs. And flat pedals.
handle bars, (rubbish) tyres, frames*
dittoBroken rear lights. No idea why I keep them.
*It's not so much that I have a surplus of frames, more that I've already filled my (quite generous) agreed quota of bikes, so they are more ladies in waiting til I fancy a change and swap bits onto them and stash frames currently in use
stress
and headaches
worn BB's.
can't bring myself to throw them away, can't find anything to do with them.

Lots of part worn ODI Ruffians.
Also lots of old E13 chainrings. And massive bash guards.
I should probably just chuck them all in the bin. They are never going to be used again.
Tyres ,tubes and 4 frames that I should really do something about 😳
Chargers.
And I can never find the bloody one I want.
Forks - I have a pair of 36 Van RC2's, Z1 anniversay, Z1 MCR, Z3 light and an old pair of Stratos FR4's all kicking around the garage.
I have loads of lcok on grips too - mainly due to changing colour themes!
I also hoard dead HTII BB's...no idea why.
Kids 😆
Never done it ,but was there not a way of fitting new bearings in to HTII BB inserts ?
excuses
Charm
Internet forum posts
Wives. And I'm monogamous.

Wheels, got three sets of 'spare wheels'
Need to sell two sets.

there is but with CRC knocking out XT BB's at a tenner a shot it's difficult to justify financially.
Jobs.
and I'm monjobgenous.
Tyres and Brake discs!
seriously, in the bin, now!
Hang on, there's at least one Hope one in there, you can definitely replace the bearings on those.
26in rim brake wheels with irretrievably knackered bearings. Why did I just move house with them? Why?

There was..
but with XT BBs for £9, it's not worth it really..
DrP
locations for putting bog standard allen keys down
must have numerous acquired sets, and can never find the right size when rummaging
might walk around the kitchen / dining room (aka bike workshop) with a magnet, and see how many tools i can reunite with the tool box
H4 headlight bulbs
large and granny rings
Gloves. I must have about 15 pairs. If they're on (a good) offer I can't seem to resist. A couple of pairs are still in their original wrapping.
Rucksacks.
At last count:
85L
75L
65L
35L
at least 5x 20/25L
Shoes, far too many.
