Stainless — Stiffer Stronger Cups — Cartridge Bearing A downhill specific version of the Real Seal, with stainless steel cups, is available as well. This version features a taller 'press fit' on the lower cup. This effectively spreads out the load on the head tube to combat 'ovalization' that can be caused by dual crown forks. Nylon T-Seals. Double Sealed Cartridge Bearings. 1-1/8” Polished Steel 200g

Strengths: Smooth bearings, Tough bottom and top caps, keeps itself clean with the nylon seals!
Weaknesses: nada.
Bottom Line:
This is one helluva great headset. Rolls very smoothly and looks real strong with the stainless steel finish. Ideal for hucksters on a budget (got mine real cheap from a friend).
