Raask are terrible. Too small, too high, poor material qualityand bad foot ergonomics.
The tarrozi are rebuildable and also can flip up for the kick starter use, great quality, and just plain better.  Check out Fast from the Past website. I like the aluminum knurled peg 90 degree flip sets.

If i were you i would expand the search a little bit. Are you not afraid to make a bracket or two bc that can really open doors for universal and other bikes( read cheaper)

yup, Tarrozi are worth the money (a lot)imo, Raask are a lot less but not worth it still, fabbing your own or adapting sport bike sets can be cheap but time consuming and frustrating and hard to make 'em work as good as Tarrozi
If it works good, it looks good...
