collectable?
theRuler:
the early to mid 90's was a boom time for great strong well designed bikes
before all manufacturers added 3" to the front end of the frame
collectable, and useable

Not that i disagree with ya mate but here's food for thought....
in late 1991 maybe early 92 i was in a record shop in lewisham and looking for the latest Hardcore you know the score releases and the guy that ran the place was chatting to some other geezer about the fact that the classic house tunes were selling for good money, probably a tenner at the time when you average 12" was going for 3 quid and they were saying that all this stuff that's out now, hardcore, was throw away and would never be worth anything like the classic's were. How wrong they were.

the youngsters now will be 30 one day, and reminise the same as us, i reckon any bikes with signature frames from pro's like my Sergio Layos Fly Pantera - right i need some new stickers! to keep safe for 15 years!!
hey waxing back in the day my dp freestyler, go hammered, was covered in grip tape and was resprayed about 5 times, due to it getting knocked about, dropped down bowls etc, not much different to how modern kids treat their bikes!

You really don't like the current stuff do you?
Everythings collectable. Everythings useable. To the right person.
