Now starting to think is it worth buying any top line new gear and keeping NOS in mint condition in a loft. Then in 20 years selling it all!

IMO I can't see that happening... can't see anyone being nostalgic about this decade ::)

Good point - well made! :)
Bearing in mind the world ends in December (According to the Mayans), I might need to re think that money making scheme!!

I've got quite a lot of new school bits, although I'm just keeping them so I have something cheap to ride about when I'm a little older or if I want to build by old bike up when I'm the same age as most of you, I'm just looking forward to the day old school bits get cheap again

Are you selling that seat of it Steve ? ;D
Mum just reminded me that I have boxes of old BMX magazines from the 80s at her house. I shall have a look through them for price guides!!
