Could it be some elaborate stunt they engineered and they have actually re-released some that they had made? ::)

From what i can gather Daz from a forum in the US, they have opened them now as Hutch are about to launch their repops and these pedals may not be worth as much as they are now.  :-\ :-\

Someone mentioned that they were re-releasing them didn't they??  :-\

Either way, it'll bring them down in price, supply and demand. So if you bought some for a gazillion dollars then...unlucky!

I have never owned a set and never will. They are a top part for a build but DX's are far better value imo. Cant really use DX's though on a race setup.  :-\

He seems like a nice bloke. Love his collection.  :smitten:

Seems like Haney is his hero!! Bet Haney has earnt a shit load out of him.  :D

Wicked find though and he aint stupid. Repops are gonna fook Hutch stuff up. Best out them now.

I have/had seen a few in non printed boxs.......possibly something to do with factory rider issue?? only what i've heard.

they did as got a pair in a box here that i bought before prices went stupid but have seen them in plain box`s but unknown if original as box`s looks flimsy compared to original box

Post by: dannywhiteley on February 04, 2009, 07:10 PM
Honestly dont think the repops will affect prices that badly, collectors still want the read deal.

Rather he opened them cos you can only sit and look at a cardboard box for so long before you get bored.  Hardly a collection centre piece as a sealed brown shipping carton.

Now an opened carton, even with na few sets sold off would be more interesting, cos at least you can see the contents.  The pedals after all is what its all about.

Ive seen similar in the past with unopened cartons of 80's Star Wars figures.  Theres part of you says you shouldnt open them, but the value isnt in the box its in the contents.

Post by: aditup 2234 on February 04, 2009, 11:35 PM
Never watched it till the end, I lost the will to live, but;
In my opinion;
The box strapping had definately been tampered with before.
The box, see above, looked like it had been opened before.
Why did he only open 1 pedal box, like I said, never watched it all in full, so will stand corrected on this
I smell a big sh1t fallin off chrome, Hutch stylie, RAT on this one.
If you had that many pedals, then why advertise it? Why not just "sneak" em all onto ebay to make a "pension". If everyone knows about em, then the price is surely gonna fall on this "holy grail"
IT STINKS!

I'm not saying this aint the real deal, but is it not strange that all the labels on the box are hand written in black marker,most bike/parts boxes had printed info on them even in the 80's and clear celotape doesn't age well, i know i'm a suspicious fooker.

I don't think there's anything suspect about it.

What his intensions are remains to be seen.  How far away from reproduction are any new Hutch pedals?

pfft.

Good luck to the bloke if he wants to sell.

There were sample repro pedals at Rockford 2008  ;) , god knows how long until production though . From what I've heard , the OG 80's Hutch pedal has 4 raised pins & the repros have 8 .

Cant really use DX's though on a race setup.  :-\


Why's that Nick ? , DX's were widely used by racers bitd including me . The best pedal ever all in all , fact .
Title: Re: Oh my god.... what a find.
Post by: munners on February 05, 2009, 04:18 PM
We all used DX's on our freestlye bikes bitd. All my mates that raced used beartraps of some kind.

I love DXs and use them on all my builds.

Suppose its choice really and what was available from your bike shop bitd.

A bit like UKAI's. We couldnt get UKAI's where i lived. Araya's, zeds or tuffs for us.

If you are going to throw 400 snots at a set of pedals, get something a more trick... Hutch Bear traps, Pah...

Try and find a set of Suntour XC I... now they are both cool and rare.

Mmm, I used to snap axles on US made Hutch pedals, these are taiwanese made ones by the looks of it.  But, they are what they are and that's a bloody rare find. 

I'd be surprised if he hasn't outed these for $1000 a pair.......
