Hi,
as it is nearly impossible to get a good pair of QL5000
I am considering to get the repros from MS.
Does anyone have experience with these?

Rookie question....QL5000 are "original" ones ?

FELL TO BITS AFTER 1200 MILE, AND TWO ROAD RALLIES

Original QH5000's are brilliant, but very hard to find now. I have never used the MS alternative so can't comment on them.

I agree. A pair severely damaged after Minis to Monte. The little needle rollers were shattered.

I've seen some ine QH packaging on e-bay... are these originals or repros?

just don't buy the ones with grease nipple holes in them. My MS ones have been fine after much assurance from Richie and Keith Calver and about 5 hours LSD race time

I found a NOS set of QH 5000 a few month ago. I just used it on my 1071 rebuild, so it can be done....

Here´s one too....

There is also a variant with the nylon bits in metal as used on the Inno's
