Having been mainly into burners for the last few years Ive seen prices change from month to month.
The gage for me is SR stems, 6 months ago you could pick one up for £15. Now there going for £35. And I've seen them at " buy it now" for £50 :uglystupid2:
Personally (jaymz ;)) it's not going to move on from old school for me. Because the 80,s is where the nostalgia is :daumenhoch:
43 going on 13 again :LolLolLolLol:
P.s. I'm loving the old school rides too.
HARORIDER:
who see the white dominator seat with blue lettering go on ebay for £345 the other day :shocked: at them sort of prices only the rich and famous will be able to build their dream bikes :-[

the arse end will fall out of old school prices in the next 10 years, theres a lot of middle aged crisis ex bmxers buying at mo by the looks, the crisis is usually over by the time they become 50 n the next phase of 40 year olds start buying up their youth bikes, early 90's onwards. The big bucks paid for builds now will never be recouped, funny as fook i think :LolLolLolLol:

I have to say that prices are on the up again, but i see no evidence of the bikes crossing the divide from old school bmxers to non or younger bmxers and as such the hobby will have a shelf life.
BUT
objects of desire have a habit of being collectible through the ages . We will see
