Which would be your choice of the above? How much are a decent set? And lastly what era are they? Wanting  them for an 84 bike!

First time i've seen some of them ... http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=1805887#p1805887 ... them things are nice  8)
from a quick search it looks like they were stock on a 1988 bike so maybe a bit late for yours
Nippons maybe more era correct ... i've bought sets from £40-100 .. they tend to go higher than that on ebay though

Checked it out, it seems  that all FS brakes seem to be post 85!                  I probably need an 882 nippon or FS 880 for front then.

yum I have a set of white FSX111's on my peregrine and a NOS black set waiting to go on another Peregrine If i ever sort it out... lovely brakes but wrong era for a 84 build.. even nippons are too late... FS880 is prob your best bet for an 84 build although most of my 880's seem to be stamped 85, I'm sure I have seen 84 stamped ones though.

Hey Derek interested if you can find the 84's. A set of FSX's on ebay.com with cheap postage!

Matt, just get hold of any 880, strip it and send the arms to paul at custom colour to annodise in blue.... that's what I did ;) good job and a bargain!
