Campy Headset Question
pete- I have a Campy Chorus threaded headset which is approximately three
years old. BRBR How long is one of these headsets supposed to last? BRBR On a well prepped headtube and with normal overhauls, and good adjustment, almost forever. I have a HS on my fixie from 1986...still smooth. Would a Record headset serve me better in this fashion, or is it minimally sealed like the Chorus? BRBR Same headset with the abuility to inject grease into the lower cup-If you want maintenence free-look at CK...but still need a good adjustment and prepped headtube. I don't want a King. Nice headset, but I don't want my bike to be a billboard for their products. Any other suggestions for a low maintenance, well-sealed and long-term durable headset? BRBR otay-Ritchey makes a nice one-Skuzzy pro or something. Or maybe buy the King and remove the lettering with a solvent? BRBR ?????do ya remove all the labels from everything-take the names offa yer car???

Campy Headset Question
snip
?????do ya remove all the labels from everything-take the names offa yer car??? Peter Chisholm snip I don't derive my self-worth from the sum total of my material possessions (otherwise my ti frame would identify itself as such). I try to avoid being a billboard - it isn't until this year that I got a jersey with more than one color and any text other than the manufacturer's name. I already have Thomson, Salsa, Campy, Paramount, Mavic, yada, yada, yada all over my bike. It's not one prominently displayed brand name but the collective weight of brand names - one more and I should be compensated for the advertising space. App |
