Not what I expected, so returned; found better
The delivery packaging rattled alarmingly, so I rejected delivery; I don't blame the supplier, because this was obviously down to the manufacturers dubious packaging.I'm glad I returned it though, because I ended up discovering and installing a more expensive M:Part Elite Threaded Headset 2012, with ball bearing cassettes, built-in weather seals, and the lowest height of all the quality Threaded Headsets I researched; it was a perfect fit for my fork thread height, very smooth, and I've seen no play even after abuse. If Amazon want to list M:Part Headsets, they could invite Parker International to join their marketplace, or source them themselves.Before you do chose the Stonglight headset, make sure you have enough thread because this is still quite tall (annoying most headsets are) and you really don't want to leave off the top nut or have it loose; been there with a different headset, not fun!

smooth but hard to adjust
Delivery was fast. The packaging was not the best. It arrived with the pieces loose. The headset is silky smooth almost non-existent. BUT and a big-ole-butt at that... Having installed them some time ago I have had to adjust them about once a week. I am a bike mechanic and I am having trouble with them staying tight. I even brought them to a mechanic shop here in Cambridge UK and he has had to adjust them twice this time about three weeks apart. I have run in to this before with other headsets. I imagine we will find the sweet spot and they will be fine but as of now, a bit of a disappointment for something that is supposed to be superior.

The best threaded headset on the market.
Lightweight, easy to fit with a mallett and headset spanners, and unbelievable bearings. If you're still running 'retro' and need a headset - look no further than one of these.

Quality product
A good quality and well made product. An ideal upgrade for any bicycle with an older style 1" threaded steerer.

great classic headset
Really nice classic design headset, with replaceable sealed ballraces. Very light. Nice precise free steering with no trace of play.
