Is building bikes easier now or back then?

I don't care if parts are repop, I care more about how a bike looks and rides...you can have all the NOS OG parts in the world, still don't mean you can put a good looking bike together.

Im surprised how much prices have gone up in the last few years. My Goose BMX Bandits Replica took around 3 years to build and parts are just becoming harder to find so demand a higher price like anything old these days.
Im glad ive just hung onto some parts and not sold them. But everyone seems to be doing the same at the moment.

I got back in to bmx last year I have spent the last 15 building choppers and bobbers and rebuilding old panheads and iron heads  now that stuff has goon through the roof  so the bmx parts are ok priced and just as much fun .i love the chase of hunting for parts

my first build was a mongoose in 2006
found all the parts i wanted easy and lots of  nos i remember paying 30 quid for a suntour stem now they are silly money
doing a build 13 years later and once again found nearly all the parts i needed  and i gotta agree havin repop parts hs made it a lot easier this time and going by todays prices a lot cheaper
