CK coming out with IS Headset?
 

Been hearing rumors swirling that Chris King, long an opponent to Integrated Standard Headsets, like what is shown here, is coming out soon with their own version. Anyone else hear that?

CK has been making hybrid headsets for a while. For instance, the last IF I sold had the top bearing with an inset that worked just like an IS headset. The bottom had a conventional bearing. I see no reason they shouldn't make those for IS. All they would make is the top cap and crown race and sell a bearing with each.

That's what I was thinking...not much to it. They could offer top caps of various heights/colors and maybe ceramic cartridge bearings...we shall see.
