They are Simmons copies and are made in China. They will be forged centres and made to order with a 4 week turn around. They will come in 18", 19", 20" and 22".I am trying to get more info about weights and strengths.Apparentely tempe will have them in 4 weeks and that's when they will have them on there website.Take it as you like. I did not talk to tempe direct so info could be more or less correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping theyd be dodgy like this, keeps the old good ones special.Though im surprised nobody has made simmons 'copies' like the fpv copies sooner than this. Cause that's what they theyll be - copies... how dare they brand them with the simmons name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
