I just cleared our spare garage. It consisted of a box mountain, then a tyre mountain hiding another tyre mountain, then there's the very sexy but front only collection of 700c wheels......I think I counted over 30 tyres.............why???
Forks: 2 built up bikes but 11 sets of forks...3 sets of Rebas, 4 sets of Revs, 1 set of Fox 32, 1 set of Lyriks and 2 rigid forks. FFS what an idiot 🙄
29er wheels , dont ask...
Must get em advertised
time on my hands.
managed to get rid of all of the other clutter in my life.
3 pairs of MTB race shoes
4 pairs of road race shoes
1 CX'er specific race shoe.
Ok so I like having a dry pair every time i ride but even I look at that lot and think, like How? 🙄
pdf's about 60,000 at the last count
Ties; prob about 30. I don't even wear ties now.
And money. Hell I've got too much disposable cash. No, wait..
Cycling clothes (especially roadie stuff) and shoes

nuke might be able to help you out...looking for a set of cheap reba's 🙄
Up until December I had 12x 9 speed rear mechs lying around my room
Frames, at least 2 surplus, but don't want to sell as both are lovely to ride and v-brake only so worth nearly nothing.
Rim brake road wheels - at least 3 spare sets, tempted to put disc hubs on them but they're all silly narrow
Shimano R55 C3 brake pad inserts for road caliper brakes
I don't even own a caliper brake road bike any more!
That BB collection... awesome and yet mildly disturbing!
Front Mechs, rear mechs, SLX brakesets, 10spd transmission, 9 sped transmission, gloves, base layers, long sleeve tops, short sleeve tops, SPD shoes, tyres, tools. It's just everything really. Except bikes. I only have 5 of those (with 1 coming) and you'd have to be some kind of screaming mentalist to suggest that's too many.
And that's just in the big bike shed. I'm basically in denial about the contents of the loft.
Bottom Brackets 7 of and 3 are unused- more worrying why have i kept broken BB?
22 tooth granny rings x 3
I only have one bike with a granny on and they dont fit it .

Probably hammers...
Have a similar collection of Stilsons, adjustable wrenches and a roll-cab full of spanners/sockets
Free time. I'm single and have stopped going to the pub so I have loads of hours to myself. It does mean my road bike sees quite a few miles a week though.
Pens and kitchen knives.
Have to run a rotation system on both to get them all used.
I bet you write some scary letters.
Saddles.
And cheap 2 man tents?
Mrs Zip's crap. Tupperware that has no lid or no bottoms. Baskets and craft projects that she will never get around to.
And magazines. Tons of the ****ing things. Once I'm dead she will turn into that nutty lady who's house is full of newspapers.
Rubbish tyres
Almost but not quite completely trashed drivetrain bits
Information (and not enough knowledge)
Noise
TV channels
Football
MPs

Illness symptoms
Debts.

Gloves, 13 pairs for cycling.
Nipples.
Thousands of them. No idea where they come from.
Tents, cant even count them in my mind.

Pah, that's just titbits.
Worn out bearings but they do come in handy. Climbing gear. Big blue barrel full and not used for years. Any one need some cracknup,s?
Shimano disc brake pads. I don't have a mountain bike so the stash is completely pointless now.
Not got any 785 shaped ones have you mister p?
bearnecessities - MemberPah, that's just titbits.
OK, that was really good.
26" tyres, frames, knackered wheels, old cassettes, odd length bits of cable outer, inner tubes that I'll get round to fixing one day but never do.
Everything...you spend the first half of your life gathering stuff and the second half tryin to get rid of it, I'm unfortunatly moving to the second stage.
Rucksacks
Tyres
Suits
Books
Comedy draws full of whatever
Cars
Are first for the chop.
Pretty much everything that's already been listed, I have too much of...A taster;
26" Tyres - around 50
Frames - into double figures
Wheels- mix of 29, 26 & old rims - gawd knows how many,they're all on a suspended piece of copper pipe that's about 6ft long...It's full !
worn out or half worn bike bits - Two big boxes
6 tool boxes - 3 are mine, the others I inherited.
5 sealant guns - Could never find one, so would buy a new one, in my defence, they're all different colours...well, the 3 that I can find are ..
Oh, & the paint trays you get when you buy a paint roller,'bout 20 of them !
I could go on..
