The advantage being you can adjust a threadless headset with an allen key, which is on a multi-tool. Threaded you got to bring a couple of decent sized wrenches to adjust.
All this talk about headset weight got me to checking and it brought me to a website called weight weenies....I shut it down after about three minutes. Doood. At some point counting grams becomes dumb. lol. but, I did find out that most threadless headset weights include the top cap and star nut. As an aside and a little off topic - I'm currently building up my 1996 specialized stumpjumper because I was tired of looking at it all sad and in pieces in the garage so I had to buy a headset for it. I choose a Hope 1 1/8" headset because I could find one in an awesome red color and it came today. That thing is a work of art...same with the Chris King grip nut (lock nut?) headset I had on my Roadeo. Good components are just beautiful. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
