  • 1985 Trek 870 (mint) -- mind condition; a unique early example, one that I think is highly underrated
  • 1985 or 1986 Schwinn Cimarron (mint) -- mint condition; excellent examples of the era; stellar rides; only going to go up in value

The rest are ones I'd let go either due to condition or being a duplicate of the above. The selling of which should easily fund the minor restorations or upgrades for the remaining three bikes.
I appreciate your opinion. Do you happen to know anything about the frame quality of these bikes?
