Blimey - RC30s

Sold some last year for 120....

400.....gulp

Is that what the market is doing? This isn't a nice hobby any more if this is the trend....

That's the asking price, whether the seller gets that is anyone's guess, but I'd think not.

At that price, I can live without my RC30''s!! and buy some nice suspension forks instead with money to spare

Rare - yet they have 3 pairs of them for sale

Be lucky to make half that. I sold a first gen last year for less than £150 iirc

Actually, I think this rampant price inflation is a good thing. Couple more years and most of us will be able to retire on what we have stockpiled in the shed.

they used to be 35 to 40 quid in working condition, so 120 is way to much

They have been there a while now and not sold. others have been and sold on the bay in the meantime.
They are not even in a condition to justify that price, especially the one with the mis matching crown.
There only needs to be one person (or three in this case) desperate enough to pay their price though.

And that muddy fox disc wheel is not original, though he's plugging it out as such. And im 99% positive the disc wheel cover was 1984, or on the very outside 1985.

I remember this because i got robbed in London at that time and had to leg it from a couple of skinheads with knives. Boy I could fing run in those days, i reckon they'd done too much glue and i ran down Pall Mall and came across a couple of cyclists who i explained what happened and they took me to a nearby police station. One of them was riding a yellow muddy fox with the pawprint disc wheel, thats how i always remember. A traumatic incident burned into the memory
I owe a fair bit to those two Londoners on their bikes.
