Hi picked up an early 90s Giant Speeder, Wolber wheels shimano Exage groupset with the old biopace chain ring, polished it up and it's immaculate white and purple colour with the Giant stickers unmarked under the laquer, bearing in mind this is a steel bike and I paid about £80 for it, should I leave it stock or get it powder coated to a colour I really like,(cost £60, paint stripped in price) , I know it's not an icon/classic however it's in great nick and wonder if there's a market fo it as is and would I be destroying any "value" it had? :shock:

    No intrinsic value so get it refinished to your taste
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
