Koen Hufkens, PhD<a href="https://todon.eu/@hembrow" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@hembrow</a> Some brands do still sell steel bikes. I have a custom Surly touring (slower gravel) bike and I'm eyeing a Ritchey fast gravel/road frame to rebuild from my steel Eddy Merckx from the 90's. Merckx actually re-issued a steel Strada recently as homage to the original one I have.I would say long lasting steel bikes are certainly not a dead market segment, but niche for sure.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/steelisreal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#steelisreal</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bicycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bicycle</a>

Koen Hufkens, PhDFinished my Eddy Merckx Strada OS neo-retro road bike rebuilt. Got a modern carbon fork in and switch to Shimano 105 parts. The frame was in good condition but I treated it with Boeshield T-9 anyway. With the new drive train came new wheels as well. Might swap out the original commuter saddle for something more aggressive, and drop the stem a bit as well. Fun learning curve getting this all sorted, resulting in a faster bike as well.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bicyclerepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bicyclerepair</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bicycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bicycle</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BikeTooter</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bikestodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bikestodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SteelIsReal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SteelIsReal</a>
