Yep, he has some stunners

79 Bassett 26" are seriously cool, they also did a Mini in 79/80 that are stunning. Won't be cheap I's say, Probably won't see much change from 2k? for an early one $:-\$

Don't quote me on that though

The 20" (Turb or pro) used back ends from Robinsons other than that I don't know heaps about them

the prices are very hit n miss, 20" can go well under $200 on usebay, but i aint seen one come up for a while. bide your time n you could get a bargain
