I think these are slams?  what do you think.  They are same sweep as my modern slambars but they are slightly angled up at the bar ends - very similar shape.

At first glance I'd say not slams, but then I am half pished!

Yer, I'm just not 100% sure if they are slams, I thought they might be some early version - still seem OK what every they are.

My mate, that I got them off, said he thought they were powerlight bars, but I thought powerlights had curved ends.

close up on the welding and knurling would help a little more

unfortunately they're not S&M slams, could be late 90's GT or DK bars at a guess

Cheers, ah well, they seem OK what ever they are - I'd be happy if they were GT.  The chrome is nice and they are very much like slams, just a slight upwards bend in the barends.
