In a nut shell the owner of the company sent out an email saying certain people were selling "fake" bullseye hubs and asked people not to buy them. After much fuss it turns out that Bullseye have fallen out with their manufacturer so were trying to make out like the manufacturer was making and selling fakes. The manufacturer just chimed in and said he had been making the hubs for bullseye right up until this year and basically spilled the beans on what Bullseye for making new hubs and selling them as originals.

I see...thanks for the summary Jon. :daumenhoch:
How can these contemporary hubs be distinguished from OS?

Been having a read, been a known fact for a while about the 'NOS' Bullseye stuff. When did the manufacturer pipe in on the thread though? Thought I'd read all of - must have missed that bit :)

That's why I 've never had a build with Bullseye hubs
Haven't the originals got brown bearings and an offset step on the rear
But alot of people are happy to have repop ,look at all the restored bikes with Hutch Skyway and Haro stuff :-\
Must be a pig finding out ,,if you thought what you bought was OS though :-\
