Re:

Rolller/needle bearings are cool. How period do you have to be? Tange are still making their roller headset under various guises: rivbike have them, and IRD market them.

I use Stronglight because they are light and easy to find.

The frame is '88 and the groupset I'm going for is '89, so I'm happy to go plus or minus a few years! The Interloc is nice but it would aggravate my OCD . I've only found one photo of a black G Master and that was broken, so I get the impression it may take a little time to find one or I use something else.

I've got a Stronglight on the 'dale which is nice but I'm after something different.

Re:

Not sure where you are with headsets, but those shimano headsets have a low stack height so just watch check how much steerer you have to play with before spending a load of dosh on something else.

I couldn't get a g master to fit my Overburys that had been wearing a dx headset

Re: Re:

Thanks; I think so too . As the fork has the pink/purple/blue fade, I thought the MC-1 needed to go the same way too. There's quite a lot of blue showing but once the controls are fitted the fades should be about right. Had to PM Jon the picture below for reference.
