HAVE REPOPS BEEN ACCEPTED?

and pads 

yes! +1!

gotta say them twin pinch flites on old bikes totally do my head in 
i'd sooner put a good opc on

Agreed. If you're going to put it in a 'show and shine' or BOTM/BOTY then take those shitty twin pinch cranks off and put a 1pc on there. For me a 1pc doesn't detract from the build, especially if it's a nice SR Turbo X

But they are just not era correct and not repops, same as the sealed bearing Tuffs; not repops just not era correct

Agreed and really no different to putting a set of NS profile cranks on yer ride

i don't have any issues with repops...aslong as they are identified easy enough from the gen stuff.like has already been said in some cases some bits are just too expensive or rare to get hold of.

[Rombloke]

as a foot note what is a fookin 'REPOP'.


do you all mean repro...as in reproduction...wtf is repop short for?

with this said though i agree with most that if your building a show pony it has to be era correct.no good building an 84 ta for show & shine with new sealed tufs on and a twin pinch flight set.but then with some other repop bits is it acceptable...such as a genuine set of aerospeeds with a repop spindle for instance?

I think it's like this Dave - Hutch had a 'pop' at making cranks and now the dude that's bought the Hutch name is having another 'pop' at making them = repop
