            I heard that they want to slowly get rid of all of the classic and minimag valves and keep the retros and x-valves.

              Why would AGD melt these bolts down - its a financial issue.

              Factually a '96 classic mag is little different then a '02 - AGD has not changed colors or some stupid thing every year to differentiat from year to year, so I can buy a used mag and have a MAG - and an old one, they are built like tanks after all and it will look good

              If AGD does not do something to get rid of some of the mags on the market they will have a very flooded market to try to sell into, why would anyone buy a new classic mag when all the used ones are out there and work great (and if they dont Tom Kaye and AGD will bail them out with technical support even though they made no profit from the sale).

              In essence, AGD has to do one of a few things - either get rid of some of the mags on the market (or the valves, gets the same result nearly) - make yearly model changes so there is a "Coolness" factor every year like with the e-mag now, or become a company that asks "where did you buy this" before giving any tech support. AGD is doing the least cost effective (face it, a new color pattern every year would not be that expensive) but what I think is the highest moral option in this decision, and again I have to say Tom Kaye should be a model to more business people in America - honor, integrity, service, and a great product.

                lohman, not true. They do it for warranty issues. namely, they wont have to spend as much time and money fixing a new valve (with new standards, parts they have on hand in bulk) then they will fixing a ten year old valve with a little spring for a spacer.

                  I seriously doubt they would take the time, expense and resources to melt them down. if anything, they would just sell them to the nearest scrapyard(after detroying them) for cash. otherwise, I bet there is a big pile of classic valves in the attic......lol
