Please enlighten me.

Last set I saw that weren't stauns were crap quality and had chinese writting stamped on the outer casing.

If stauns are the copies what was the original ?

Link etc ?

First there was Tireloc (imported by Roger Smith) and it had a rubber flap prone to breaking at the valve.

Then Roger improved it with Simex tubes and his own bags with fabric tabs and these were called Secon Air.

Then Roger did a deal with Staun and made them for Staun - Staun now get them made elsewhere.

Roger has gone back to making Second Air

I am not aware of any with Chinese writing. If there is a chinese equivalent (wouldn't be surprised at all) then agreed it is a copy ... of a copy.

I know that years of improvements have gone into Second Air with quality tubes and fittings. I'd stick with that.

BTW, do you have inverted rims - super wide offset with the outers reversed. If so they can be a pain to fit without the right tools. Otherwise they are straight forward - just do 1 bead at a time.
