Hmmmm... just when I thought it had been established that Sport headsets had no engraved lettering around the cups and only two wrench flats on the upper one. I would have mistakenly IDed that as a Record-Nuovo Record headset. Cool you have a lower stack height alternative that looks like a Record unit.

There are some slight marks from fitting, but overall appearance is quite nice indeed. Comes with all original bearings and packaging. Again, threading is ITALIAN.
