Title: ODI Mushrooms
Post by: thebigdog on October 27, 2007, 04:42 PM

I got some today that have "SM Racing" written on the small end and "SM Racing Made In USA by ODI" written on the other end. I am guessing they are real but I thought all mushrooms had the little pictutre of the mushroom on the small end?????????????

Any thoughts?

Sorry, My fault. I saw 2 people on line who i thought would know. Sent PM's to both and then got impatient and posted a thread  :2funny:

Bodamus must have read the PM before he saw the thread.

Anyway, his info was spot on and matches above!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers
Matt

sm mushrooms came out just after odi ones

i think they all came from the same company though

sm ones have "sm" on the end
odi ones have a picture of a mushroom

both good grips

when they are stuck on good

run bar ends with them!

i think the sm mushys are about 30% softer than odi ones, or some crap like that
