Have some manufacturers ripped off the heavyweight Berg pulleys these last few years, keep finding 'Equalizer' pulleys anodized on black with no mention of Berg, so assume they aren't the real thing??

yes, I have a Berg knockoff from CB. Had to be rebalanced before installation, ut has a nice fit on the crank and black anodised finish. Not bad pulley for under 50$

They havent had any power size in stock for a long while now,last run they did was only fullsize pulleys,not sure of they will ever make them again now,hence the price of used ones,I have one for sale but it isnt going cheap
