Dates are hard.

Tuf 1's were sealed bearings.

Tuff II's came out first as a metal hub and then a alloy hub.

They then introduced a sealed version still known as tuff II's. Rears were either alloy or metal and the front sealed. Then went front and rear sealed.

They now do re-issued ones that are sealed.

This is a rough guide of the years.

Tuff 1's 79-81
Tuff II's metal 81-82
Tuff II alloy 82-84
Sealed 85-.........
