I know that opinion is divided on these, but, having just fitted this set, I think they look pretty, well, kool...

I think they look okay on the rear but a bit naff on the front.  My issue with them is that most people fit them on both and then run them on bikes later than 85 when they would've been either 50/50 or just placcy hubbed anyway.

Sure, but I just prefer the look of them. They're going on an '84 Ammaco, so should be ok for messing about on.

In all honesty, If you like the look of them then that's all that matters  :daumenhoch:

I think they're OK, at least they are a very close comparison to the real thing, whoever makes them has spent some time doing their homework to replicate the real deal.

Unlike DC with their awful MX1000's.

I've been pondering using these on the rear of my plastic hubbed Tuff's for my 85 Master, as Rob says, leaving the front well alone.  I think they look OK but am undecided.
