Strengths: Functional excellence, easy to install and remove, nicely made.Weaknesses: Doesn't come in blackBottom Line: Nicely made and works as well as Record for me. I also have two Chris King HS' but they're more expensive, difficult to install without their tooling, and for my conditions (road although wet in London) and weight, a bit of overkill. I've never in 30+ years worn out a headset provided it's been properly cleaned, lubed and adjusted.
Favorite Ride: Tailwind plrease
Price Paid:
$50.00
Purchased At: Corrado (Liverpool)
Similar Products Used: Campy (most Record variations since 1972), Dura-Ace and Chris King

Strengths: Light or average weight.
Matches my Chorus gruppo.
Good price.Weaknesses: none yet.Bottom Line: I had the bike built from scratch - the shop owner discussed each component - I selected Chris King - he recommended Chorus on value and strength.
The road surfaces where I ride are awful - all potholes and rippled surface and the Rolf wheels are so inflexible they don't help - it's hard on the headset but it's fine so far, after about 700 miles.
I love using an AHEAD SET - I needed to experiment with bar height, so it was set up with spacers, and an extra 1 cm spacer above the headset till I got happy with bike configuration. If I needed a different height I'd get an angled stem and flip it up or down.
Favorite Ride: Wine Country roads
