Definitely don't buy the cheaper versions of the sks race blades, I bought some Acor ones this weekend (£19.99 folks!)and they fit with some kinda huge black plastic thing with plastic grub screws. Rubish!! it takes about 20 minutes to fit them and the threads in the plastic screws wear out almost immediately and if your tubes are tapered they slide down.
My mate bought the sks ones and the fitting is so much better and so worth the extra tenner and seems designed to be taken on and off at whim, whereas mine are made to stay really.
