If I was going to get some now it would be the American Stars from Alba. Why, life time warranty, they have a good price as well. A few of the guys on here have them maybe they will speak up. I have heard the whole Rebel Star bad mouthing story, oh well things change, people also bad mouth the Dura Blue that I have, no bending/breakage out of it for over a year.

I agree the Alba Pro Comp A Arms Look like a great deal. $549 Chromolly, powdercoated, Adjustable & w/ a lifetime warranty on welds & material & no spindle reaming required.
As a comparison Sparks A Arms are $699.50 Powdercoated.
I do like the Russell Cycleflex braided brake lines ($99 & free shiping) from Dennis Kirk (you'll need longer brake lines for wider A Arms) better than the Alba lines (I just put a set of Russells on). The Alba lines are crimped at the T where the Russells have a T block that the lines screw into just like the factory lines.
I can send you a pic of mine if you want.
