They look the same as a pair that I have on my Floval Flyer and that's a 94/95 model so I would say more mid school than old.

Strange that - not mine checked ebay and the seller has relisted them  :-\

I have not paid yet because, he advertised as 'old school' - and then I had doubts etc..

It was only the weekend - bit early for him to relist them....  ???
