Thinking of getting one for my Turner 5 spot. But i'm sure i read on here about somebody not being happy with the quiality or at least the longevity of the bearings.

Was I dreaming it? and those of you that have them have they been OK?

The reason I ask is that it will replace a Hope one which seems to last for ages.

Well I've had one on my Soul for about a year now without any problems. I haven't ridden it that hard but its got wet and muddy on a regular basius and is still working.

Mine has been fine for a year or more. Took it apart once and the bearings were still perfect.

They're worth keeping an eye on though, as its harder to seal since it is not drilled concentrically like a regular headset. Standard bearings and easy to replace if you need to.
