They look pretty genuine to me, but its never easy to say 100% unless I can see them for myself, but everything looks good on them from the photo's, the bends, the welds, the size & the later ones came with those engraved lines on the stem part & the potts bolt  8)

The stem bolt could have been added after, I think the wedge should be a bit different  ???

I think the potts type bolts had a recessed allen key & the non potts had a normal 8mm nut & the slim type of wedge, I've got some at home, I will have a look when I'm back  8)
