You're right! I know that rare doesn't necessarily mean worth a lot or worth anything. But well said though mate! :daumenhoch:

Post by: factory pilot on January 15, 2017, 08:39 PM: Weren't they around 86/7 onwards... They seem very popular for some reason on FB groups ( hence some top prices paid ) ... £150-200 maybe for a NOS pair at the very very most I think in the last 6 months.

This is a perfect example of what I was talking about in my eBay thread earlier today :crazy2:

Post by: fugazi on January 16, 2017, 03:33 PM: I tried some bitd, thought they might be good for flatland, pumped one up hard and the sidewall parted company from the bead. More suited to wheelchairs I reckon!

I think that must be a 'feature' of them
Previously when Jono had blowouts trying to ride on them I just put it down to him being a pie enthusiast

Post by: Swivel on January 20, 2017, 10:30 AM: I used to have about 12 sets of these, all of the colours about 12 years ago, couldn't not sell them to anyone for a £5, now they are worth a small fortune lol ;D
