Have to say for the money the quality of the machining is very good and it looks like my carbon heal plates will fit. If they fit and work well that's rear sets and levers for less than 100 quid!
Whenever Chinese rear sets come up the standard advice seems to be to replace any nuts, bolts or fasteners with 'proper' trusted ones as the Chinese ones are made of cheese. You don't need a footpeg falling off mid corner

To be fair the fixings were better than the stock one I had to remove with a drill!
I've thread locked everything I don't want to fall off and copper slipped everything I want to adjust, fingers crossed!
They do look good! Have you given the pegs a really good stamping on to see how strong everything is? There have been a few horror stories over the years and better to give it a good testing at 0 mph than cranked over at 120
those rear-sets look good monty ive had to replace the bolts in the Italian ones i bought already as they seem to be made for my sons plastic drill set.
"80mph" sorry officer I possibly could not have done that I'm no Valentino Rossi.
Think they might be SATO Racing copies, as they look very similar. They do flex a bit but no more than the 400 quid Gillies I had on the Daytona and those fixings were actually made of cheese.
Not in the post but an email from Ride magazine confirming my place on a day of riding instruction (I imagine) next Friday in Peterborough for an article in a future issue.
