## Description

Sunlite Threaded Headsets in different size and color variations

Review: Elgin Prewar Klunker headset - I purchased this for a klunker build - a prewar Elgin frame. In retrospect, I should have measured the old headset, but I did some research and took a leap after reading other reviews here. I pressed the races this morning and it fits really well. The polished silver is a big mood-enhancer over the years-of-grime-headset that was there before - it looks great! I purchased the 21.1 x 32.5 x 27.0 headset.
Review: It works - If you have a bike that has/had a threaded fork assembly, this works just fine. I installed a Threadless set up on a Harper single speed with a carbon fork. After I purchased another Harper Plus which has a Threadless set up from Retrospec, I found that the carbon fork I had installed when I converted over on the Harper, does not seem to be an added benefit to the steel frame, I converted it back over to the original fork which luckily I held onto. However, I either misplaced or threw away the original threaded headset, so I purchased this one and without a doubt, the steel fork is better on a steel frame then the carbon fork.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good value
*by E***E on September 27, 2020*

fit a 1986 GT im redoing and works as expected, it was a little thinner than I wanted but for what it is , its a great value and looks nice on the bike. I'm adding a pic bit i dont have the forks cut yet so the top cap is not mounted yet. The seat rails were black so this headset brought it together , I purchased the bottom bracket in black as well from Amazon from the same maker.
