Now I'm even more confused. No idea why 2 versions of the same thing exist. You can always shave the bumps off though.
Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

I'm just going to go with the same analogy that I use at work.

When someone says "that doesn't make sense", I tell them that "we don't make that here". We make a lot of things, sense isn't one of them.

Probably a "running change". Someone found an issue that could be fixed with a small mold revision that didn't appear to cause backward compatibility issues, so they made the change and it started on the next batch they ordered.

As shown in these pics, the initial run of bellcranks, like the ball cups, the parts were not on trees like the originals. Then in 2015 or so, a 2nd wave of cups came through. They were no longer green, and they were identical to the full hex OG ones on the tree. The bellcranks R16 just posted are like the OG style but obviously from the rere era. I wonder if they still had a few of the original molds at the time and pulled more off of them?

Is that deal only for the club members? I'm still seeing it listed for $118.
