Chris King's web site says they offer 10 colors for their headsets, but I can't see if and where they say what those colors are. Does anybody know where that is on the site, or otherwise what those colors are? Tnx

The pewter can look more purple than dull grey / gunmetal ti.

Pewter is actually black they just pull it out of the anodoizing sooner. So pewter is tough to get it exactly the same each time. I do love the pewter, but all of my bikes have black headsets and hubs except one set of pewter hubs. If I could I would change all my headsets to Sotto Voce logo's. I don't need to advertise for Chris King. The new road hubs are sexxyyyyy. :crap:

What happened to the soft pink, this seems to be "hot bubble gum" and not too cool?

You can also check out this site.

They have a good photo of each complete headset.

I've had pewter, black, red, mango and brown (rootbeer?). The brown was pretty cool in real life but I just built up my last bike with black sotto voce. It looks great.

Thanks Björn, old buddy, old pal!

Do know that the colors do vary a little. Some lighter and some darker. I ordered a blue headset cap and it is almost black until the sun hits it.

Another parts maker that seems to have a lot of good commentary from the intenser side of the Denver cycling community is Tune.

Cheers,

Eric
