Hello all, I'm new here. Found the site while google-ing for "retro" and "bike", surprisingly.
I would put my 1997 Team Marin firmly in the retro category, but it seems the focus here is more on early '90s bikes - it's all cantilevers and quill stems in your piccies.
I'm sure it's been asked many times before, but is there a watershed year where bikes become "retro" or is the definition more vague than that and linked to material, geometry and bike set-up (in which case my bike definitely is retro)?
