I didn't even buy one when they were £30

There a bit like a Streetbeat, but I must say I do quite like the Streetbeat now

I thought £27 including postage was way too much

85 punters at that price can't be wrong. A few people have said that the forks are worth £27 posted on their own.
but then if you've never had one and had a look at the quality of the chrome and the welding you wouldn't know.

The bloke charges too much, end of story. I cant see anyone buying a chopper for £2500, not even me.

My favourite part about the £2500 chopper listing is the statement "THE ULTIMATE SURVIVOR-ONLY USED 8 TIMES IN 79 FROM NEW"
Are we really supposed to believe that firstly, a kid only used his bike 8 times and secondly, he kept a f@#king log book about the event so it could be quoted in a for sale listing 20 years later FFS

good point, well made........and would a NOS Chopper, in it's box be £2500? I wouldn't have thought so, however you never know, and it is made by one of the best bike companies ever. FACT.

I'd never goto £2500 for one that's been ridden as many as 8 times though, no way.
