Agree; try and see. 6 months is not a long time, anyway.

As for selling bikes or other things not presently used, I've done that and
looked down a year or 2 later to see that I was kicking myself for doing
so, and therefore had to spend more $ to get something similar back. I've
repeated this "sell and kick and spend" cycle many more times than I should
have.

I agree that you should add to the bike you like riding most any device
that will let you ride it more. My 2003 Road custom gofast hung on the wall
because most of my riding was commuting and I commuted on beaters. I took
the '03 to a local builder who turned it into a fixed gear commuter, and it
got ridden more than any other bike thereafter.

"Extra" bikes are sunk costs and require only inventory carrying expenses,
which are usually small. Store 'em up, and if 2 years later you have no
desire to ride them, sell at that point.
