not sure on these, but Landar were always pretty cheapo copies BITD but lets face it, most of us all run their stuff as we couldn't afford the real deal  :LolLolLolLol:

they don't look that ba though, would be interested to hear from anyone who's bought one  :daumenhoch:

Would'nt pay £50 for them

As Pickle said cheap copies from the 80's

They look nice but not worth that any day  :-\
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

Bankrupt bike parts is turning into a bit of a rip off to be honest...

I thought these would be the ones you were talking about!I was looking at these for awhile wondering the same thing as you.Although Landar were a pretty low end brand,like alot of people in the 80s,they probably had some stuff made for them.Im sure i saw some german writing on the box somewhere,which could indicate its a rebranded product,and it could be quality.Its certainly unusual to find a shite hollow opc,when that was the sort of technology youd expect from the likes of TIOGA!I think these were up for more money before,it stil doesnt look like they'll sell at that price.just looked again,yes it says produced by leinmex,whoever they are??could be german,could be taiwanese!!Id say they were a tad pricey,but nos 80's opc's are quite difficult to find! :daumenhoch:

Every now and again the same geezer put's one up for auction, they usually go for about half that.  :daumenhoch:

I must admit I bought one of these a while ago for £30 off eBay and it does look really smart.

Whether it's any good or not I don't know as I didn't use it in the end but it's going on my latest build so I'll let you know!  :daumenhoch:
