Internal Headsets
Ok the Internal Headsets in my Litespeed (a Cane Creek IS-2) has dies after 2&1/2 yrs of abuse.
I've been told the Cane Creek Solos is the bee knees and will out last the std IS-2 or IS-6 by a long way.
Do any of yuo fine folk have any experience with CC Solos? 10yr warranty is appealing.
others that are available and which I would consider are;
Token IS
FSA
Campagnolo Hiddenset
opinions?
experiences?
ta

Can't help you with suggestions as to other brands and models. I am still (about 2 1/2 years, like you ) running the Cane Creek IS that came with my bike (Arenberg). BTW, I would have preferred a classic headset--but that wasn't part of the deal.

Campy will not work - it's a different standard than Cane Creek IS. FSA makes products for both the Campy and IS standards. So be careful. The Solos of course is the same design as the IS you'e replacing. Token also makes IS2 parts.
Personally, I'd buy another Cane Creek, simply because that's what you're pulling out. As far as the Solos specifically is concerned - why not?
