WD Pro Gold Trader Feedback View May 15, 2009 #3 Dont know if its just the camera angle but the Ti axle looks to be the goldish color of TI drill bits i.e. just coated ? Quality of the print etc does not look up to the same quality of the version posted above either :?

orange71 Retrobike Rider Gold Trader Feedback View May 15, 2009 #7 is there much of a market for fake bike parts esp. BBs? Not something I've come across.
H hamster Retro Wizard Feedback View May 15, 2009 #8 The machining on the taper faces looks pretty dreadful too. They should be very smooth for the taper to work. There are a fair few fake Chris King bits around - not heard of it for BBs before though.
