 Some people have more money than sense.

 Well, if your hobby is rebuilding old bikes with "period" parts, then so be it. Still cheaper than some pastimes I can think of 
|
|
 Still one of the best tyres I've ever ridden...
Be interested to see how they would compare to say something a NN today
|
|
Well, I've got some c 1992 Onza Ski Bar Ends in ball-burnished aluminium in the garage. Might try and email the idiot that bought they tyres....
|

No BHB, that's just your nostalgiac mind playing tricks on you. They were crap. So were the Spesh Umma Gumma and those dodgy grey Tioga thingies with the stupid macho name I can't recall. If you rode any of that crap today you'd hate it.

I loved my porcs I'd have a pair today!

1992 Onza Ski Bar Ends in ball-burnished aluminium There are a lot more old bar ends around than there are unworn 18-year-old tyres, so I wouldn't expect to get much for them. Welded Ti L-bends, on the other hand 
|
|
 There was a guy on fleabay recently selling Shimano chainsets with biopace rings 
|
|
shudddder
|

I've got a Tioga Psycho 2 in the garage, I might see if there are any more retro-tyre obsessed numpties with more money than sense.

I'm almost sure I have a pair of dalmation frogskins kicking around in a box in the attic at my parents with all my other childhood stuff.

They'd be worthless unless they're anodized purple.

 BHB those frogskins have just been re-released as a limited edition - http://oakley.com/pd/4883/18980

No way!
Mine but be buggered to fuck by now but they were so uncool with the purple croakies lol...
|
|
 I still ride a Kenda farmer john upfront on one of me bikes, damn good tyres on road/hardpack too I must add.
|
|
 Onza porcs were awesome tyres. For about 5 minutes, then the tread wore off them
|
|
bloody hell i've got a pair of white porcs in the garage - wonder if they're worth anything - tread is a bit flat from pulling skids on black tarmac but hey they still look cool
|
|
give you a fiver...they're worth fuck all mate
|
|
I know the buyer of these tyres well. I'm not going to even attempt to explain the retro bike scene, just that, they're intended for an exceptionally rare & highly sort after bike. I see friends spending masses on massively expensive old fishing reels.. each to their own & all that charlie, PM me
|
|
Yo Eddy?
I'd like to see them on a Pace RC200 with bullseye cranks...
Or perhaps the manitou FS with essentially a pair of forks for the rear triangle
