People want disc brakes & light weight. E-bikes are real now. New bikes look different from vintage bikes. Fewer people wrench anything any more.
They see OLD-ness. And it looks outdated.
So yeah, anything but true classics sold to the cognoscenti is next to garbage.
Still looking for that classic German roadie - affordably. (Size 59/60).
