Headset Compatability: Chris King vs ?
"PeteCresswell" wrote in message om... ...Chris King was trying to tighten up the distribution of their stuff in an attempt to control discounting. Another reason to buy another brand.... Let me know how long those other brands last for you. I've got a CK headset from about 1997 that's been through two owners and three frames already and is still going strong. I won't begrudge the company $10-20 more for a product that more than lives up to it's reputation Another reason Chris King is trying to tighten up distribution of their stuff is to make sure that they get installed properly . I guess too many people were buying them through on-line discounters, messing up the installation and then expecting CK to replace things under warranty. |

RE/
This thread has lost me. Will you have CK headsets on both bikes, or are you looking to use another brand with a CK lower race? I assumed that you'd like to have a different brand of headset which would use a CK lower race. I've got CK on two bikes. Got one frame laying in the corner with no headset. Soon gonna have a fourth frame - replacement for my FS. What I'd like is fork interchangability among all 4 frames - without migrating headsets. -- PeteCresswell |
