I was going to suggest the race cage change thang as well.........maybe ceramic balls* would do something as well.......at least that's the beauty of old stylee stuff- check and re grease every six months, new balls, and I reckon yer headset will last, if not 20 years, then at least as long as a new one!
I had an uncle tried these- also had a wooden leg, glass eye, and tin chest............very accident prone he was!
