Chris king is the best of the best. Comes with 10 year warrenty and like every single color you can think of? They are expensive but highly worth it. I had mine for 3 years not problems

Like said before, you need an integrated headset. Also, CK headsets are not the be all end all when it comes to headsets especially, if you are running an RS fork! I'd recommend the Cane Creek 110IS. It has a 110 year warranty. Yeah, 110 years!

First, I am not a huge fan of the o-ring design. It was good years ago when it was first developed and released but now, there are newer and better designs available. The issue is that RS fork steerers tend to run a bit on the small side by a .001 or 2. This makes them rattle/move around more compared to other forks on the market and seems to be specific to CK and RS forks only. With other headsets and RS forks, there isn't an issue. There is something up with CK's tolerances.

Do you use an RS fork? I know what I am talking about. Ask a lot of the users who have a CK headset and an RS fork what their experiences are. Even a quick search within this forum yields threads about it...

Believe me, I am a CK supporter. I have numerous Nothreadsets and a Steelset but I don’t run CK with RS.
