Been watching the news about the repopping of Izumi and now it seems they're here. Anyone know what the difference is?

They are OG.. Dust don't make any difference.. Does it ???

I spoke to this seller who told me that he cannot sell on UK ebay due to a uk supplier being given priority sales from Izumi. They have around a 4 week head start.
Izumi have never stopped making/selling chains and are just re-issuing an old chain. Apparently, there is no difference between them.

Sorry, I mean orignal 80's ones. There has to be way a way of telling them apart, otherwise the bay will be flooded with people trying to make quick buck
-
The only differences I can see is the link amount on the box, possibly the writing on the inner packaging and the split link being Silver. :daumenhoch:
If I recall, the stamping on the original 80's weren't IZUMI on every Black link.

1 on ebay already :-\

Evans have Silver or Gold

Have a check of your old ones.

I've heard they're going to do some of the Red and Blue/Silver styles also.
-
i emailed izumi about a month ago and they told me they had no other plans for different colours other than black/silver
-
Have Evan's got the black/silvers in stock ? , couldn't find them on their website :-\
-
Izumi are also going to do Black/Gold like the Black/Silver :daumenhoch:

Probably made in the same factory
-
YBN and IZUMI are both big manufacturers so I doubt they are made in the same factory :daumenhoch:

One of the local road bike shops here in Perth have been selling Izumi chains to the fixie crowd for years, they had them when I first moved over 4 years ago so these are nothing new. They sell for about $40 or so.
