Ok, so first impressions are pretty good.
Rads Look good, very light.
Some of the welding on the brackets isn't the best, bit lumpy & the brackets are a bit ragged (more deburring required) but should be solid enough & all brackets/tabs seem to be there.
Haven't bolted them onto bike either, might do a side-by-side with the set Chris bought when the chance is here.
I'll post pics later.

It almost looks like that hanger was made by hand...

Agreed - looks like flat plate been rattling around in a pillar drill!

Would you recommend me purchasing them? did yours come with the fan mounting? the look posh, did you sand them up a bit?

Haven't touched them, that's how them came out of the box.
Forgot to look for fan mountings, will try to look later.
Overall I think they're ok for the money (bracketry could def have done with more care) but will reserve judgement til I get them onto a bike.
