Post by: christian on July 22, 2007, 02:02 PM: how often do the old scool frights come up then nos ones?
Title: Re: cheap or not
Post by: Lazarou on July 22, 2007, 02:31 PM: NOS i'd say are rare but nice reconditioned sets come along quite often (pricey though!) Just don't go for a double pinch bolt set. They're brand new.

Post by: Jt on July 22, 2007, 04:00 PM: they still look good though, and are a cost effective alternative to running over priced shagged 401's for nostalgia's sake eh?

dont beleive the hype!! unless you are running a show bike, then these are perfect, but get em direct from am cycles..i did ...got 2 sets landed including post and stuff for 130 quid.
