Tyres

Kings Cycles in Wellington had a basement at the front of the shop, accessed through a hatch. The smell of the tyres down there was overwhelming... same as @bikeworkshop some of those tyres were donkeys years old.
 
+1 for cool dark basement storage. Bicycle Workshop in West London (sadly closed down) had some perfect pairs of amberwall Timbuk ll’s and original Smokes that had been there for 25 years and just like new/supple as you like.
