Actually that's not what Patrick said. He said the Trigo color sucks, nothing to do with their similarity to magnesium in terms of appearance.

Personally, I think the Trigo color is fine. And I think Patrick's color is "six of one half dozen of the other." As I said above, I might get a set of the Vintage Wheels' version since they're close to real Halibrands.
