I was on the fence between the MSW's and the ASA JH3's initially. Eventually I went the "safe" route and got the same as what many others had (JH3's)... as there were some posts about the MSW's having an incredibly limited clearance with the brakes. I believe the MSW's are also gravity-cast, whereas the more expensive brands use atleast some sort of low-pressure casting, which is stronger. In any regards, the MSW's definitely look pretty good!
