Well said Lou. I'm 55, so I worry even a bit less about a $30 HS holding up.

When I mentioned CR list comments of the various Tange's as NR alternatives to a reputable professional, long, long time in the business, he said that the Tange's don't hold-up. When I was 30 years old, I worried about parts holding up. Now that I'm 53, I worry about my body holding up. I have enough bikes that I doubt I would ever wear out a new headset on any of them in my remaining lifetime. So, to overly worry about the longevity of a $30 part is beyond my level of comprehension. If I was worried about it, then I would just buy two. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
