I still have this one and one in Black. The pink works better for your bike than the black.

Pretty sure I have one in silver. What's exact size crown race do you need? This one's slightly larger than 26.4 but not all the way to 27.0.

I'll check tonight but I don't know if it matters and there's already a King race installed on the fork.

i've got a black one if the OP or anyone else is interested.

I have an older one in silver. 1" threaded, no logos. Shoot me a PM if you're interested in pics.

Why do you want a king when u can put a dura ace or a 600 ISO in there? yes shimano made ISO headsets too. Saw a couple at ebay just in case.

A shimano would look better than a king IMO.

Like this one for example...

did not notice the pedals, those together with the impact are the best pedals time came up all these years. Why to fix something that works? :/

that vs king, isn't even the same thing, atmo. obviously that price is ridiculous, and many can be had for much less, but I think most people buy king for the sealed bearing...

that being said, I have a blue king 1" threaded that would match that little blue stripe if you so desired.

Thanks a lot for all the replies folks. I just found one from a generous member!

I could have gone for a DA or a 600. I know. But they are hard to find in good condition these days and NOS ones tend to sell for a premium.

King still is a great HS with a classic look. Or I could have looked for a Cane Creek... :)
