one for the CW experts

CW bars are genuine ones stamped in anyway i can't remember , is the knurling the same on all, had a quick look on museum but apart from the stickies i cant see any other markings? any one know,, or is it just down to a closer inspection welds, and chrome?

the tell tell sign that they are genuine cw's is the solid cross hatch knurling at the stem area although the later taiwan made ones had two knurls like most knurled bars,and no they didnt have any stamping

cool, thanks for that M, found a set but not got my mits on em yet i think they might be copies, as there were lots of copies about bitd, guys also got a set of aluminium v bars but again i know less about those than the CW's might just take a chance, he wants £15 a pair, both sets in real good condition, but $:-\$ ?

check the welds are nice and neat.
usually the cheap ones were crap welds

cheers Dordy and Boba top stuff

, last bit of info required i seem to remember there being three sizes of CW's $:-\$ ?

pro size like those, a tiny cruiser / mini size and one in between , the ones in question don't seem to be as big as the pro size but are to big for the small cruiser size ones , i think they are going to turn out be copies looking at the quality of the ones in Bobafetts pics, so is £15 to much for copies they are in real good condition, chrome is like new, but $:-\$
