Gotta Love Chris King !!!!
CK just announced the limited release of pink headsets & hubs to honor National Breast Cancer Month. King will make a charity donation on every pink product sold. :thumb:

Is there anything not to love about this company? Great products, superb warranty, eco-conscious and now supporting breast cancer research. There's no reason to buy anything else.

Now here's the only question...Are you man enough to ride pink?

I never understood the appeal of CK until I installed one of his headsets - it was incredible, everything fit so tight and was so smooth.

Yeah i think it;s marketing strategy.. the people will :heart: even more Chris King.

I am in love with my Discotech rearhub. :drool:
Nice stuff, but I just can't make myself spring for the hubs. Maybe someday, but Hope is way to nice. I do have some 240s that I really like, so maybe someday. The headsets are a must if you don't have an integrated headset (which I hate having)

Thats not hers, but the same frame, it's much more vivid in person. I have to let her know about these pinky King comps... :D

I think it is about the same as other Chris King stuff. I think you have to email them for a exact price.

But i would be lovely if you are gonna give your gf that stuff. She will be thankful for ever.

hahahhahahaha p.u.s.s, is she hot?

...ewwww...

I think she's almost 40, and her and her husband own the shop (He handles all the bike fixing and tech stuff, she handles sales, bike knowledge, and the business end).

But still...thinking of her like that makes it...icccky ewwwww....

:stupid: ya a whole dollar, i know wholesale prices on their hubs and headsets, and they could afford to give a bit more
Same here...

meh, CK is overpriced IMHO...my 15 dollar headset has lasted a full year of XC racing, why blow 100 bucks on one so I can think I'm cool...

Except for the fact that very few people ride the same frame/bike for 7 years (how long it would take if you were buying the cheapos before you'd balance it out), to me its a waste, even if it does have my last name on it.
