rutland is a big and reputable bike store so doubt they would be selling fake redline

Ah. Just that they usually say the toothage and USA on them, and the crank arm socket is usually on the spoke next to the redline?

 I got one when they first started selling them for £4.99  , They dont come in redline packing ,just plain blue packet saying 44t chainwheel. I,ll get a pick ltr.

I would have thought the packing would still have redline on it? Anyway they are/were  cheap enough  :daumenhoch:
