You'll feel way more power on the top end, but midrange will suffer

The original is made from titanium, is dark grey (titanium colour ) and is frikkin heavy. The colour on the fakes is a much lighter grey, at least that's the ones here down under.

Here's a pic of my original DC2R ****.

Isn't the paint on the numbers one the OEM **** a dark deep red, while on the fakes it's a crayola type red? I think I heard that somewhere. I need a new shift ****. My m00gen fake is getting old.

Yeah, i think the red is more towards a pink colour and the **** itself is a light silver colour. You can easily tell the difference if they are next to each other.

The one above is genuine. That's exactly what they look like.
