If you come across a complete set Terry give me a shout as Jonnygoose wants a stamped set , he did say the stamp was more like a white graphic as opposed to a mold ( which doesn't really tie in with the Yellow one in your first link - maybe there were 3 generations of them ?? )

Not had a read through the whole lot but some bloke called Maurice wrote this, think he might know a thing or 2 about Tuff wheels :)

Just had a read Ash , Jonnygoose is right then .... the first ones were stamped or maybe printed is a better word from 75-77 and then the unstamped version came out in 78-81 . The molded stamp ones came out in 1980 and ran through to 83 :daumenhoch:
Early printed Tuff 1 75-77
Unstamped Tuff 1 78-81
Stamped Tuff 1 80 - 83

Great info guys :coolsmiley:
I am surprised they ran the Tuff 1 alongside the Tuff II though. I would have thought the Tuff 1 wouldn't be able to compete with the Tuff II, in kids wanting the Tuff II, and would have withdrawn the Tuff 1 :-\
You learn something new every day in this hobby. BMX forever :daumenhoch:

That's a misleading advert as Perry is on his NBA winter nationals bike with steel hub Tuffs but the advert is for earlier ones :LolLolLolLol:
