get the pick and mix isle looking bike imo
i think people are right to say lairy stuff ages poorly, but the upswing to this is the resultant graph is shaped as a dip,
the first 6 months? excellent, it looks great, pristine, looks ace.
within the 6-18 month window you will regret it and wish you got something that looks like a pasnormal drone, usually around the time of the first scratch
but then over time, as it ages and you stop caring about it, starts to come into its own. like a Moschino shirt
and like that moschino shirt, some young person will be gassed when you sell it to them for a 1/10th of the price as you've "got all your use out of it and want something a bit more now"
