Anyway, I have minimal knowledge about bikes, but I was wondering if there is a market for these bikes? What kind of value might a bike like this have?
The older Laings were often very nice! I've got one from '75 (I asked Colin), and one made last year. I really like my newer one, but think the old one was more cleanly built (no offense, Colin...they're both cool). Colin has been building since the late '50s, I think. There's a market for every well built bike... Please post some pictures...!
