CATALOGUE BIKES
i think some of the late 80s / early 90s catalogue bikes have become rare because of of the type of buyer they mostly had, if you was going to buy a mtb back then from a catalogue you was already starting 5 down in points from a score of 10, they might have been bought in the mtb boom and only ridden down a canal towpath 4 times and then when the catalogs started selling suspension models they was taken to the tip and cast off without care, if it was out of date it was gone simple as that, im taking about the people that dont no how to repair a puncture and would go to the bike shop for a squeaking brake, yes these bikes dont have a prestige name but they have a place on here too, its not just a Ferrari that becomes a classic when it gets old, its the fiesta too, if its old its in and if its not become part of a washing machine or on the back of a scrap mans transit on its way to china then even better :shock:
