The arse has fallen out of the market, there are loads for sale now and some people on the groups are getting mighty annoyed that the bike they ‘invested’ in appears to be selling for less than they paid…if they can sell at all.

There are still adverts saying “the prices of these bikes are only going one way…” - yeah down :D
Interesting! I’ve been toying with the idea of getting a smoker for a few years now. I kept convincing myself that it’s end up an expensive garden ornament, but recently found out they are ULEZ exempt so I could use one for a commuting every so often! :D
Get a new smoker like mine :)
