I didn´t know this thing existed, but probably many retro experts here might even have one. Proshift rear derailleur, similar to the Paul, this one available for €800

Now an early version of a cargo bike. Very similar to the ones used by the German post until recently. This rust bucket is available for €199

Another round of findings. One of the oldest "mini-velos" you could find in Europe. Kettler City Hopper. It´s an adult bike despite of the looks, non-folding. This one available for €90

All around the Frankfurt area... https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/faltdreirad-di-blasi-dreirad-16-zoll-mit-tasche/2760686880-217-4501 Let me know if you want me to talk to the seller

The seller only says "prototype, works with pulleys". And after all this effort, they still expect €5000 for this bike

Enough with trikes. Now a convertible cargo bike. It's either a normal bike or a very long base cargo bike. Clever, €999

And yet another electric trike. In this one the riders seat in parallel, and the cranks attach behind a Nexus hub, one per rider. No given price.

Another trike, this one folding. Trikes are popular among the elderly population as it's nearly impossible to fall. This one folds incredibly compact. Yours for €300

A tricycle with electric motor. Asking 1900€

In my local market (central Germany in a densely populated area next to a big city) the used market is slow due to excessive supply. Everybody is jumping to ebikes and dumping their non motorised bikes. However in the classic market, the ones from "iconic" brands or models still sell well and...

And another one. Cardan drivetrain (like a Boxer BMW motorbike) and rear suspension. Brand is FENDT, I only know them from doing tractors. Asking price is €520

I already posted the "Schumacher bike", but since I don't want to create a new post each time I find something funky in my local classifieds, I will post them all here. Feel free to post your own findings. No need to be well priced, collectible, or retro. Just worth looking at, for whatever the...

I never had a bike I've never ridden. If I see I don't ride one often enough, it goes for sale. Life is too short and space too scarce for collecting ...

Interested to see the final result. I have the same bike but '89 (same colours and specs, just cantilever instead of u brake at the back), will be the next one for an overhaul

He, he...agreed. This is a forum about vintage bikes, meaning most of us are slowly getting into the old grumpy judgmental age. Think your father-in-law but with way too many bikes in the shed...

Kleinanzeigen in Darmstadt, Germany. It was posted for €800. I was going to add the link but it's gone, so maybe they sold the bike after all...

Advertised in my local classifieds. Made by Staiger, an old but average German brand now under the Accell group

I'm no Kona expert but as a steel lover I always check what they have as, together with Marin, they are one of the few manufacturers still producing a significant part of their models in steel. And the Unit is one of the few modern "mountain bikes" I like, maybe because it is just a modernised...

I'm happy to report that, against all expectations, I mentioned casually to my wife this morning that I would be selling the Trek bike soon, unless she wanted it, and she said YES! I guess it helped that I have the same bike with my parents in great condition and looks very classy, so she wants...

Thanks for all the replies so far!! Although I'd love to keep both (I'll try to convince my wife she needs another bike since we have the same size, but with low expectations), I'm afraid even keeping one is pushing it, as my mother in-law is not super happy with me parking bikes in her house...
