adapter + king == high(er) front end

The cane creek works fine. I never saw a need to replace parts that work fine.

Fair enough, as long as it's not crunchy. I have just seen so many cane creek headsets that are just plain bad feeling that I could never buy one or reccomend one which was why I was concerned.

I know what you mean we get those all the time down at the shop but Cane Creek does seem to make the most reliably 1.5 headsets considering I've seen like 3 geminis this year with FSA crap and weve had to send in to cannondale for warranty replacements because they always see to have play.

Although a king would add to the bling bling factor 100 bucks can go to saving for my D2 helmet hehehe.
