from Auckland, New Zealand Date Reviewed: September 21, 2004 Strengths: Aesthetically pleasing Smooth as knife thru jelly Light while durable (I have seen 60 grams headset, an Italian brand, but wouldnt count on its durability compare to the Kings) -What other headset will want to be when they grow up. -Want to use it to decorate my desk/bookshelf. Weaknesses: PRICE, well, if you want the best of the best, you have to pay for the price at times you may look like a poser with lots of money that you dont know where to spend, or how to spend it. Well, this is what other cyclist will say about it anyway. Only, and ONLY people who has owned one of this will appreciate how precious they are.
