Sorry that link didn't work either.

No worries as I read the codes wrong they are 2018 manufacture.
So as I first thought a real bargain.

Evidence provided ha ha.

Opera must be bouncing through a load of VPN's
It just looked odd to me and I thought I'd say something so people don't get their fingers burned
Anyone heard anything about Stoober recently?


Yep, Opera Mini loads the site to their server, compresses it and then serves you the compressed version thus saving your data... So the site you're visiting sees your IP address as wherever the Opera server is... :old:

Quite interesting actually Steve, thanks for the link.

I noticed that the S stands for stainless, Better be careful with that, it may break or shear heh heh.

Sorry should've said the prefix S stands for stainless. As you say the suffix is RS, rubbers seals.

Okay if you fit them yourself.
Your local fitter/supplier may tell you to feck off.
Any manufacture date?


Yep, every intention of doing them myself, got myself two very nice 18" solid tyre levers a 10 years ago & fitted my own tyres ever since. Triumph ones were particularly difficult but these look easy.
Can't really question the price though, just thought another enthusiast may be interested.


I totally take back that statement "these look easy", really difficult to get off & even worse to refit.
