Im looking for a headset for my new Titus Fireline Evo 29er. O-O recommend their Smoothie mixer. £39 - not too bad. If you want to run a tapered fork (why else get a tapered head tube) they charge an extra £19 for a 1.5 crown race!! £19 for a little piece of metal that you need to use the headset??
I would email them to ask if they will swap the 1 1/8 for a 1.5 race, but I already have 2 unanswered emails from them.
superstar
For comparison, the equivalent Superstar is £31.99, with both crown races included. If they had a black one inn stock, i would get it, but only gold/orange/techno lime. Gold is tempting, but it isn't a nice gold.
They chucked the crown race in for free when I bought one.
Frosty - was that a request, or it just came?
ring them
Does it include the price for a bearing as well? 20 should buy you the entire lower half (see Hope pick and mix for an example)
tmb - I agree! No £19 is just a crown race!!

orange superstar - nice colour 😉
Doesn't quite fit with my Ti and white scheme!!! 😯
Lots in stock though.
😆
orange saddle change to match? (joking)
I've got a 1.5 superstar race for £7.50 .. how's that?
Ooh - do you remember that PSA for orange saddles and grips last year??
can't recall.. does it need exposure?
No, I just remember a multi buy of Charge spoon and grips in topping orange for peanuts about a year ago.
I must stop thinking about this before i end up with an orange themed bike!!!
FWIW my smoothie was absolutely rotten, bottom bearing went graunchy in a handful of rides. It was free, so can't complain too much but if I'd paid a pound I'd have been annoyed.
Get a nukeproof one from crc..

.. err, a previously owned scandal with a s/s orange headset
grips and saddle "tan" 😆
I had the same. It came so close to buying a Hope Pic 'N mix, I got one from my local shop, who fitted it free of charge.
surely if you twist that D lock on the end the bit holding it to the shed would just pull right out?
