Restoring it should be for your own satisfaction, not to hike up the resale value by a few shillings. If the bike is "worth something" then you should consult a dealer in antique bikes to pick your course of action. | |
| Jun 9, 2011 at 15:10 | comment | added | jackJoe | The problem with this is the loss of the original items in the bike. I can reproduce the stickers and you made good suggestions, the problem is if that's a good or bad idea, since the original items can increase the value of the bike. I suppose in this case I may be a bit nit-picking since probably the bike has more value to me than to others and honestly I just want to get rid of the stickers and change the look entirely, but I fear this may be a mistake? | |
