Has anyone used one of this pistons?
Due to the lack of MB 71mm pistons from MB i've seen that Beedspeed sells 71mm pistons from KHC brand but i've not tried one yet....

I've used the KHC pistons in TS185 format for a few years with no problems at all. I have 2 70mm and a 71mm here. They look good, but I haven't used them, so I couldn't swear to how well they'll last. Wiseco and MB pistons are miles better though!
