49-59 neck cups.

Can anyone tell me how I can tell the difference between the 49 cups and the 60+ cups? Just want to ensure I have the correct ones. Thanks in advance.

If you buy them from any of the regular suppliers they will be 60 up. Get ahold of Mark Blankenship (304)-697-1445 after 3 pm for a set of 49-59 cups...Mike

I have 3 sets and don't want to have to buy any if I don't have to.

Thanks Panhead.
I went to the website & contacted Mark by email. He replied quickly, invoiced me via PayPal, and mailed the cups the morning after payment. They arrived yesterday.
When I receive a package at work there is always a circle around me when I open it. Lots of OOHs & AHHs, I had to explain the difference to the young guys. Just so happens we have a bike in the shop with a 70's frame & front end that has real Hard-ta-guide tins. the tops of the cowbells are exposed ( & ugly).
Mark offers the cups bare, or with races installed & bearings furnished. Plain language instructions for installation included.
That's what this hobby should be all about.
