200 dollars a set seems dear for new school pedals just because they have an old school flavour.

They're $189, so say if he adds $25 for post....converts too £155. Stung at customs is somewhere near 10% on bike parts (14% on completes) + VAT comes to £193.75, then the customs handling fee of £8......

£200+ on repro pedals is kinda pricey for us in the UK.....

The bulk of my collection is Hutch but I'm not bothered either way about values, it wasn't bought as some investment waiting to be sold for when the price is right, but I don't think new stuff will effect it, it's never happened on any other re-issue or repro, quite the opposite, makes people more hungry for the real deal. Buying this stuff for vintage builds will give you quick satisfaction of looking the part but I'm guessing it niggle away at you if your heavily into anal (don't start JT.... .) I'm glad it's here though , some bits I'd gladly take like grips and aerospeed discs, pads too. They'll fill the gaps on some fringe builds I can't be arsed chucking crazy money at. But I'm not going to kid myself that's it's proper Hutch though, it's a decent lazy quick fix but fook it, got more important things to spend time and money on.

same thoughts as you mark j

after reading Mark J 's maths about VAT and customs, if any of my RAD mates that has dealed with me in the past and has confidence in me (well I guess 100% of them do

) is up for saving a few quid, I might be able to offer a bit of help.. LMK

not being that bothered about de bruin, at 200 nicker a set you might as well re-pop them yourself.

With a bit of luck it may bring down the price of original Hutch stuff for us all to enjoy

maybe im speaking out of line but why so expensive... repops are repops and the pedals were never that expensive BITD so why bump the price up now....

4140 pedals will be $189.95/pair, same price as 1983 (estimate, adjusted for inflation). Ti pedals will be $299.95/pair.

But Crupi Pro's are a hell of a lot cheaper than that....

This new company might be Hutch by name, but it's not the real Hutch.

FRom those pictures I think I'd rather be the new Hutch.

I'm glad they're not cheap at £30-£50, every budget build would have them screwed into twin pinch flights taking away any kudos or extra wow factor originals bring to the look of a bike.
