I watched that in 1080p. You can see a safety wire to the knockoff spinner. However, I remember Bill having an ERA at one point that had fake knockoffs, and I did not realize it until he mentioned it. I think Bill would be able to identify ERA style fake knockoffs (assuming he watched the video in high res).

I believe the 'rolled edge' means that the fiber glass mimics how on an aluminum body, the aluminum would be bent around the cockpit tubing. Stop at 0:10 and look at the stripes at the back of the cockpit.
