Robin Williams bike collection up for auction.

[User33236]

It seems the family of the late Robin Williams are putting the majority of his bike collection up for auction in aid of his two favourite charities.

Some nice interesting bikes there which, no doubt, will achieve a premium price due to the previous owner's link and the knowledge the money is going to charity.

He certainly believed in N+1!!
There's about 90 bikes up for sale..

 

[User33236]

Yep n+1 indeed

Apparently he had over 100 bikes and 87 are currently up for auction.

WOW!

So sad. On the plus side some fans get some machines they'll doubtless love and cherish, and a charity makes some money. Can't think of a more worthy legacy than that.

Italian champ's team Lampre Six-Thirteen drool.

Too small for me, though. And with the pound like it is, $2000 is probably £3000.

No Idea Robin Williams was a cycle freak, every day is an education on here

 

[SWSteve]

Had no idea he was such a huge collector, and I assume rider, of cycles. Lot's of great 'odd' frames there! Who knew so any bikes don't have seat tubes...

 

[SWSteve]

Does everyone else have individual saddlebags on each bike, or do they swap them over?

[QUOTE 4511089, member: 45"]Robin Williams' death still makes me sad. Not sure why this one has had a different effect.[/QUOTE]

Yes, an absolute tragedy and an acute loss to humanity.

Swap them over depending what size I need...then I'm not a multi millionaire

I think Im being thick or tired here but I am struggling to work out the frame size.

I suppose the standard of stating sizes by tube length doesn't quite work on these designs so yes, size isn't obvious to me either.

4 of my bikes are self sufficient and the other two share. Not that I'm a millionaire either, just lost count of the times I've headed out without spares.

The Beatles once sang "Money can't buy me love"
I beg to differ.
The Ritchey would suit me lovely.
