Same design of wheel but by different companies. I think the original minilites can still be bought but they are about twice the price of replica minilights, superlights or eurolights.

I love my superlites :thumbsup:

do they.... ohh pants... not had mine long

Yes come to think about it, they are rather more dished than minilights.

I like the look of them Minilife wheels that minispares do. I never noticed a difference with the spokes though... must pay more attention.
