Checked back through my 80's Redline Catalogues and not seen any mention either... :-\

That's not to say there wasn't some made mind....

Flanelcamels resto jobs on flights & chainwheels have made some people think its a chrome finish though... ;D

Black finish can be seen on newer discs over the last few years but not the 80's stuff. Had a good plough through my catalogues now.... def only in silver finish. :daumenhoch:
