the proline flights are pretty strong as i used my single pinch ones for a month at rom and they seem ok still

selfpreservation:
so do you reckon the prolines are better than the flights they look beefier more like the original flights someone else was recommending them on here as well , is there anyone in uk selling them or better go usa

I have had both Flight II's & Prolines. Despite what people suggest here, the Flight's are more like the originals with the exception of the double pinch bolts. The Prolines are heavier and more burly than the Flights. Both look good, but the benefit of the Flights over the Prolines is the size of the recess where the sticker fits on the arms. It is much bigger on the Prolines and repro-retro stickers do not sit well in them. If you are on a budget the Prolines are great, but if you want something to look proper old school, I personally recommend the Flights.
