Hi Gary
Nice Saracens. There are three different types of wheel on the Saracen. The earliest have the unlisted 12x30 wheels, which don't seem to be rare but just unnoticed. I think your two have the listed 12.5x30 and 12.5x40 wheels, but you might want to measure the one on the left to check.
I don't think I'd noticed the different ejector rings - is it the later 12.5x40 Saracen with two?
