Post by: MartyC on March 04, 2013, 03:18 PM: They have been out for ages, can't see them impacting on prices of the originals no other re issues or repos have and if they do it's likely to be upwards not downwards :D

In 2009, they 'found' 150 sets of front and rear NOS alloy hubs and produced them using 'the old mould', in Red, Blue, Black and White. They were 'the last of the hubs and will never be reproduced' back then, and now, another 60 sets pop up :LolLolLolLol:

These wheels used up the last of the Campy hubs and were machined to use the sealed bearings..... All old stock flanges still.

Post by: The Burner King on April 22, 2013, 01:22 PM: They should have done some more white. Black old ones are easy to restore compared to white - not any point im buying these when there is no serial numbers stamped on the braking surface.. just get some good condition proper old school ones and make them look like new.
