I'm sorry, but I'm an adult and my parents should respect my decisions. If they asked me to sell my bike I'd tell them as politely as possible that it wasn't going to happen. It's a two way streak, I do my best to respect their wishes, but they also have to understand that occasionally something I am passionate about is going to go against their wishes.
Where's it stop, if they ask you to quit your job are you going to? If they ask you to move home are you going to? If they ask you to marry this super hot rich chick who loves it IDB are you going to . . . . no wait that one doesn't fit in with my point.
Anyway you get the idea, we're adults (chronologically at least) and our parents need to understand we're living our own lives at this point.
