vdc Changa Long ending soon still with no bids :(
HUTCHMAN:
is it me, or is that head tube longer than normal ? say 5" ?
dannyrobo:
I thought vdc was worth loads or is it a low end vdc. I've seen vdc bars sell at £500 I thought a frame and forks would be worth loads. I don't know a good one from a cheap one

I think you have a point;
In the sellers ebay description he writes;
"It was bought from the USA with some damage to the down tube and the chain stays. I contacted Voris Dixon in California who said he would be please to look at it and maybe repair it. It is the first original 1980's Changa he has worked on since the heyday of BMX. He repaired the damaged sections and photo documented it all."
Although he does not mention the previous head tube issue on his ebay listing, he mentions it on BMXMUSEUM as being 'sawn off', so one must assume it has been worked on;
"It had sledge hammer dints to the down tube and the top of the head tube was sawn off."

There's a set of bars on egay that's been there for over a year at that price and will be for another ten. They don't SELL at that price.
Pro bars peaked at around £380 18 months or so ago
Current prices are £230-280 (and have been seen as low as £110 for a knarly set)
Expert bars are slightly less, cruiser bars are way more.
