I like Stronglights also but historically, the company has had difficulties holding tolerances and meeting production deadlines. The latter is probably the main reason for they're lack of success. I also believe Stronglight's rather tall stack height limits they're after market success. All of this is too bad. Stronglights are cheap, look normal, work well and last a long time. What more do you want from a headset?

I guess same reason Stronglight A9s aren't popular either: look like Campy, work better & longer.. Actually, I feel that the design of the A9 and the Delta makes more sense than other headsets.

I was just thinking that Chris King has been making their wonderful headset since around 1976. Has on the list been using them that long? I started using them in the early 90's and find them vastly superior to standard headsets. Why didn't they become popular 20 years ago? enjoy, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives SB, CA _______________________________________________
