    Favoriate Trail:Thuin
    Duration Product Used:2 Years
    Price Paid: $100.00
    Purchased At:my local ike store
    Strengths:Nice and rigid stuff
    Weaknesses:This headset have the worst bearng I've ever seen! Or if it's not the bearings, maybe it's the seals but water can easily comes in this headset. It will be a good headset if yo're living in Greece o in a desert but definitively not if the weather is sometimes rainy in your country.
    I'm certainly going to buy a Chris King!
    Similar Products Used:FSA and CK
    Bike Setup:Scott Strike light (20lbs): Hope, Tune, ZTR355, Easton, X.O,...
    Bottom Line:Good headset... except if you often ride in muddy and wet places!

    Date Reviewed: January 4, 2002
    Favoriate Trail:Kalopoula
    Duration Product Used:1 Year
    Price Paid: $70.00
    Purchased At:Frederik
    Strengths:super strong bearings,extra seals in both caps: nothing can get into the frame.
    Weaknesses:only in black,but who cares!
    Similar Products Used:FSA Orbit
    Bike Setup:TREK Y33 with sid XL or SL forks,WTB hubs,MAVIC rims,RINGLE,ROOX,HOPE discs and XTR drivetrain.
    Bottom Line:I'm tired to see parts breaking after a few days or weeks, and here in Greece we don't have technical support like the mtbikers in the USA,the UK or France,so we have to wait sometimes for months to get these and test them to find wich will suit our needs and will last longer.Anyway,the Twister Xc is the perfect headset,believe me.
