and look up 'Steuersatze', there's a lovely kingsberry one (like on my Manitou) for only 18 Euros - there's only the silver left though.

The guy who runs the site is a regular on here, name's Andre.


To get a gold one you're going to have to get a King.

I've got a blue one and a silver one, £5 each posted. The silver one's BNIB, the blue one has a few marks.

Thanks orange71 I'll have a pop at the silver one and go from there. Can you send me payment details by PM.

Out of interest which of the chris kings is the one to go for the grip nut or the 2nut?

grip nut and 2nut are both excellent. grip nut is less prone to come loose (a properly thightened 2nut won't come loose too though) and has a lower stack height. but only the 2nut would allow you to use spacers and/or a cable hanger.

Was able to recently purchase a basic silver one from my local Bike Friday dealer.
