oh wow, they DO look like Jaramas! Jaramas must be a knock off of these.

I'm pretty sure those are jaramas, not some original version. You can tell by the bolts and inlay in the spoke.

I thought the lip looked too deep to be Jaramas, I could be wrong, he must have put a different center cap on also.

It's not Jaramas. If you put the video on full screen, you will see that there are only three rivets in between each spoke. The Jaramas have many more rivets, cheapening the look.
