Chris King Brings Purple Back

If you’re like me, every time a purple Chris King headset pops up on eBay, you watch it, patiently. Most of the time, the auctions close out too high, or it’s for a 1″ threadless. So imagine my surprise when Chris King handed off a purple 1 1/8″ Sotto Voce headset to me last week. These are a very limited run and can only be picked up at their Eurobike 2012 booth.

Here’s more information:

“We have something special up our sleeve for Eurobike 2012. Come to the Crema Cycles outdoor booth at this years show and visit the Chris King product bar where we will be hand-assembling components before your very eyes.

Chris himself might be the one to put the finishing touches on your hub, headset, or bottom bracket. As if this weren’t reason enough to pay us a visit we will be offering a limited amount of purple anodized shells and cups. These purple parts are exclusive to this years show and are sure to go fast. In addition to purple we will also be offering black and red options.

GET THEM AT EUROBIKE #FG-A5/5″

Who knows, maybe if there’s enough interest, we’ll see the return of the purple!

      Either my FBM (if I can get the cups cut off) or my Bishop Road.

        Where can i still get that frame? i need a new beater bike and since i’m 6’2″ i’m guessing that a Gangsta v2 is too small.
