You need to finish it and pop up your progress here. What type of bike are you building?
I built mine over the winter of 2017/18. There's a thread all about it here:

As I started this thread: I thought I’d update:
At one point I had 14 (?) bikes. All too easy. But for me…..a bit of a nonsense. So over Winter I’ve sold (And bought): but simplified. To be left with:
Green Bergamont 8 Grandurance - Gravel
White Trek FX3 - Hybrid
Blue Trek Marlin 7 - MTB
Purple FIT Bike Company - 22” BMX
So 4 x completely different bikes for completely different purposes / ride types.
All 3 of the main riders (Not inc the BMX) are on 1x drive trains. All have the same Charge Spoon saddles. All 3 have the same DMR V12 pedals. And the Hybrid, MTB and BMX have the same Skyway grips…👌

I’ve also still got my much-loved Carrera Subway do-it-all ‘beater’:

And the Kuwahara ET Replica is now in the rafters of the man-cave - as per first pic:

So 6 total. One of which is pretty much ‘display only’. A scantly used 22” BMX; and 4 other riders 😁
Mmmm…..maybe for you 😁
A useable fleet. With space to get around them: was my goal.
I’m winning 👌

Ah! But if they are easy to get to, it will also be for a Thief!![]()
