As I mentioned above, in 2002 some Litespeeds continued to use conventional headsets and some had gone to integrated. The Firenza was their "entry level" frame and used a conventional headset. My '05 Firenza also uses a conventional headset, in its case now a Velo Orange Gran Cru. Not quite a Chris King but very good and a lot less costly.
