anyone of you bicycling people install this on your bike yet?
i know we have a bunch of really well off and rich people here so there has to be at least one of you that has put this on a bicycle when it came out and used it so far.
i'm considering putting this on but want some feedback as to if its worth the 3x the price of a dura ace bb.
King headsets and bottom brackets are at the top of the parts food chain by anybody's standard. I have both and you'd be suprised at how many people see them and say " WOW, King, nice". [thumbsup]
IMO nothing is worth 3X unless the weight difference is HUGE. Look around and see if you can find a Ti BB or other similar high end like Race Face on sale. I got a Specialized Ti bracket for my Fisher Paragon for about $50-60 because of the odd size of the bracket.
OMG... after years and years of waiting they finally made a BB. too bad i don't care any more. finally the industry stayed with one style long enough for CK to get something out.
I'm sure it is really nice, what's the price on that?
I have one and it will be going on my IF 650b specific SS frame. [thumbsup]
I might get one for the replacement IF. I had a King headset on the old one that lasted 8+ years until I went threadless. The CAAD9 I ordered has a BB30 setup and In the interest of not adding more weight, i'll probably go with a BB30 crank.
