If you have any doubt, I'd be happy to check them for you.

One small detail

It appears that Trigo switched to 60 degree bevel around 2003 or 4 possibly. So be careful to measure your bevel. Kirkham may have to make both 60 degree and 90 degree to satisfy the market. My info source is very reliable, plus PaulProe said

The pins and adapters both are machined to a 60 degree taper, not the 76-79 that David found. I am estimating the wheels to be around 5 yrs old. I bought them used so I can't verify their source or production date.
Bob Lacey,
Your definitive post is very helpful; thank you.

Regards and Happy Pin Driving to all!
