CHRIS KING no logo headset 1 1/8"- price advise please

[PanoIgano]

Hi guys,

I bought a bike for real cheap on FB only to find out that it has this 90s CK headset.

What would they cost?

Cheers!

With good anodising and no cable rub scuffs to the cups then about £50 to £60 secondhand? About £150 to £200 new depending on when and where.

Thanks mate!

It’s really nice to have an “actual” evaluation here cause you can’t get anywhere close to the real value of items on eBay.

Just found a similar CK headset for 250 quid or something: https://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/185900...QXPbyhbTBW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Unless this one is one of a kind and I am missing something here.

I think this is a very early one with no writing/logos on the cups, this one isn't in the best condition and I don't think the seller will achieve anywhere near that figure. CK threaded headsets the Gripnut can command good money and the titanium model is expensive too. Always check the 'sold' prices on ebay by ticking the box down the left hand side, there are some real dreamers out there!

Thanks for the tip!

Checking some sold items now and found this:



BTW mine is a no logo one too so I guess also a very early one?

I hadn't noticed noticed this was a no logo from the angle in your photos, they must be worth more than I thought. You should try for the same figure? Condition of parts has the biggest influence on value. If someone is interested they can make you an offer but no one will ever haggle you upwards!

 

[PanoIgano]

Thanks again! I guess I will have to list them and see what’s their worth at this point in time.

I had a turq logo one I bought in 2012 for about £70 which was the going price back then - I'm pretty sure you could get a good bit more for that now
