I have the chance to pick up an early 90s overburys pioneer for £35.
Is it worth it?

Re:

If someone's expecting you to pay 35 quid for the privilege if lifting their bike for them, I can offer the same service, several times over, for 20 quid.

Now, call me daft, say I'm losing money on the service I offer by not charging market rates, but I'm an honest chap and don't want to charge more than I think a privilage is worth.

Hit me up [as the yoof these days say apparently] if you want to enquire further about my terms and conditions.

Re:

Too late. Someone beat me to it and got it for £40.
New to this. How was I to know it was anything decent, just looked like an old bike that needed a bit of TLC and I wanted something for a winter project. Ya live and learn. I'm sure there's more than me who have hummed and aarrrghd themselves out of a real bargain, but if you want to carry on taking the p**s, feel free.

I shouldnt worry, the front forks were either bent or replaced, and by the time you took the paint off, all the fillet will have fallen out. That or worse the tubes would have rusted from the inside out.

Amazingly cool bikes, if you get a good one...!!!
