Sold my boardman hardtail a few months back when i bought my anthem, looking back though i can't help but think i should have bought a discount reba to replace the horrendous dart 3 fork and kept it as a winter hack.
Who else has sold a bike then got second thoughts? 😛
Wish I'd never sold my XJ650 in 1990. Not sure that's what you meant though.
Sold my Reign for a Mega...
The angles are more up to date but it doesn't feel as good...
Yep-sold my '98 S-works a couple of years ago. It was old & dated and had it's problems but no other bike has given me the same joy to ride 🙁
Regret selling my 2004 Marin hawk hill. I loved that bike. Still scour eBay for a mint one.
I miss my 2005 Prophet and my similar period SWORKS Ht.
Really regret selling my Intense 5.5
I sold my poo brown Kona unit when I needed money and have been looking for one ever since, I have checked the classifieds and eBay daily for years but no joy, I am beginning to think they only made one!
GT RTS
04' SWorks Enduro. Will buy another one day. Loved it, but didn't realise how much till it had gone.
Yep - split my Remedy, after getting it just the way I liked it, and regretted it instantly.
I had a 456 with revs on it was friggin brilliant miss it like mad, think I'm going to have to build another one soon 😀
had a 653 cougar road bike fitted with full 105, (the very last of the 7 spd, d/t shifters) tubs, rolls saddle (that was the comfiest saddle ive ridden)
sold it for 400 quid in about 1996 after my marin got stolen and i needed something to get to work.
probably the biggest regret of my (cycling) life.
Had a 456 SS with a very expensive build. Sold it because the frame was dead and unresponsive. Now I'm having to "make do" with lesser components due to finances. 😥
Always regretted selling my GT Zasker, always wanted to get another one ever since but always ended up buying something else. Always remember it as one of the nicest bikes to ride I have ever owned.
Sold my 2009 Remedy 9 to finance junior's impending arrival. Stans Flow/Hope wheels, Talas 36s, XTR,X0 throughout. Fortunately sold it to a mate so I can still visit her at weekends 😀
Sold my Chromag Samurai when I needed the money , missed it and when it came up for sale again I got it back 🙂 its not going anywhere now !
Yep. My original pompino which was just a stupid thing to do and my specialized enduro due to redundancy.
Regret selling my Cannondale Gemini DH and Prophet MX both were great fun to play about on.
My '05 Reign, the first shape with the forged basket around the bottom of the shock-lovely bike.
My Empella Bonfire cross bike at the end of last season. I was a fool to sell it then & so cheaply.

It was good wasn't it 😉
i really regret selling my 2002 cannondale f800 in a moment of stupidity.it was matt black and awesome 🙁
i also regret p/x'ing my 2010 anthem x2 (due to worries about servicing costs).it was a great bike.
also regret p/x'ing my 2010 stumpy fsr comp (i p/x'ed it for the anthem x2 as i thought i didn't need all that travel). even though i cycled from devizes to bristol and back on it with no problems. around 85 miles on mostly canal towpath/tarmac. the good thing though is that i MIGHT be able to buy another one (the same model,but up rated components that has been looked after for a good price 😀 if i get it,i don't plan on selling it 😉
[i]i also regret p/x'ing my 2010 anthem x2 (due to worries about servicing costs)[/i]
Strangest reason to sell a bike?
No, just re-read your post - probably either/both of them...

I sold my Pitch for £400 and then I've ended up spending more on parts for the new bike that I could just have taken off the Pitch if I had kept it
Have only ever sold the ones I didn't like, so no regrets
Got more important things to regret than selling bikes!
Plus, if you sell one you usually get to buy another - which is never a bad thing.
I regret selling my 98 Kona Lava Dome and my Scott road bike! 🙁
99 Klein Mantra Comp...sigh
Regret selling my SS tricross, mainly because I sold it for peanuts!
Sold my Kona Stinky to fund a new build. Regretted it ever since. Would like to think I'll build another some day...
Regret selling my Langster and going over to geared road bikes.
I have lots of regrets...my Uzzi VP and Santa Cruz 4X are a few that spring to mind....but its also nice to keep changing bikes 🙂
