I think I’ve got some Super deluxe decals but not deluxe

You can buy 4 for a tenner on eBay https://ebay.us/m/QHUg2o

Doubtful as anyone wanting to buy a bulk deal wants it at a steal. Even full bikes don’t release anywhere near the parts would. I’ve no issue with slowly splitting it all up once the time comes as I don’t need a quick cash grab. I think the only bikes which would stay complete to sell would...

Yes pretty much as I expected. The retro content on my Instagram has a large amounts of views from countries which I wouldn’t expect such as Indonesia , Argentina, Peru etc - also mixed in with the more expected places. If that’s the case ref prices - surely it’s worth importing them as frames?

Write back saying your car identifies as a bus …..

I’ve had quite a few Frost Red 97 frames. A massive issue as I’m sure you are aware is that they turn dull / pinky rather being deep red (as yours is doing) You can buy coloured matte wax for cars which helps to add some colour back to them but also retaining the finish. Admittedly it’ll...

I always find it interesting how location plays a massive part in how rare or desirable a bike brand is which then directly affects its value. GT is my likely favourite brand as we had one of the UKs largest dealers near to me. Which means we have an abundance of old GTs around here. ( But...

Id prefer it all sold well before then. At least this way my daughter can have the cash benefit. More than likely once I've made the decision id start one by one to strip each bike to sell. I know it would need to happen should we move to Spain as Im not moving them all with us.

There was a pair of 117 ceramics on XTR for sale on FB this week for £170. Not sure if still around. For me , I think a Pace needs either Hope , or Pace/ Hope combo.

Until they look at the spreadsheet prior and realise the value. Ironically last night I mentioned for the first time I’m considering selling up the lot. First question was …….. £££££?????

And just to satisfy my ocd turn that Thomson post around to the correct direction
