i know you can get the new tuffs in orange but it aint the same as the proper 80's ones.
the tuffs are the hard part to find in orange.
to be honest anything is hard to find in orange  :D.

Mind you the eighties Tuffs on that bike weren't alloy hubbed (if I remember) so the new ones look almost the same.

Have a squint at the Tuffs in the pic fromFreestlye mag, they are plastic hubbed. God I'd hat to have to find a pair of NOS Orange Tuffs, I'd be 50 before they turned up on ebay ;)
