    That's better, thank you for the close up. Yes, just the finish of the actual item appears somewhat different.

    No, that's understood many thanks. The ratchet ring was my main concern as they are fragile and I've found no way yet of removing it

    Unsure now lol Like the original as you say weren’t the best finish to start. I’d hoped they’d be a nice smooth finish but maybe not. I need to look at how I’d get them a nice smooth black gloss finish. Thanks

    I went with the colour of the through axle which was black. They’re not completely gloss no but not matt either. I haven’t got a black hope hub to compare it with or I’d get it as existing. Maybe a bit of me thinking it would all be prepped but maybe that’s something I need to to before...

    Not great. Stitched up for £15, absolute joke. Don’t transfer him any money. Been waiting over 2 months for some parts he said he would sell me. Bank transferred £15 (maybe silly of me) but thought long standing member would have been ok. No refund. Nothing No replies, nothing
