Scott — Some fine-grit sandpaper or a razor blade could make quick work of
the decals. Though I'd hardly call the eight-point font on the headset
which you could only read once you get within a foot of the bike "a
billboard."

Eric, thanks for your take on headset!
I was hoping Corwin would post pictures of the headset laid out, not stacked,
so one could visualize the respective parts. And one picture I'd like a do-over
of is the one that glares out the side of box that lists kit contents.
It's esthetically pleasing,
Scott — Nice for the price and would buy again and not think twice.
Nice finish, seems to be considered a good design by people who've run them
on their bikes. Zero miles on mine so far.

Lol. Still getting used to this place. Just realized my last comment
responded to something from 6+ months ago...so it goes...at least the
thread was current ;)
That said, just want to thank the OP again for doing this as CC is so
meaningful to the sport of cycling and any support directed hi
I think Greg is actually referring to the SS model, which is an early Ibis
bike, as opposed to meaning single speed.
As someone with a couple of Scorchers, I will only say that the one thing
that is more fun than an Ibis Scorcher is a Willits Scorcher with Schwalbe
2.35" Big Ones. Fixed and Pl
Eric, what's your in-hand impression of the headset?

I understand the Grease Guard design was licensed by Suntour, does anyone

Bump!
Jacquie and Charlie want everyone to know they still have lots of headsets
and chains for anyone that wants or needs one or both.
Please contact Jacquie (jacquie "at" batnet.com) if you're interested.
Thanks,

Greg...is that Ibis the Scorcher? Man...that bike was so cool. If it didn't
in some way inspire the Bridgestone X0-1 , I'd be very surprised. They
certainly both have that iconoclastic vibe

I am also thinking hard about which bike is appropriate for this headset.
The closest I have to that era MTB is an Ibis SS, but I'm thinking maybe
the '81 Ritchey sport-touring or the Riv Wford All-Rounder?

I'm going to put the headset in a place of high honor on my new forthcoming
Nobilette Roadeo. In honor of Charlie I'm going to execute two maker
projects:
1. I'm going to make a little plastic shadowbox to display the postcard of
Jacquie and Charlie, along with the autographed headset box. I'
Thanks for bringing this to the top, Bill. I also ordered a set yesterday.

I got a headset coming my way. I don't even know what it's for. I'm turning
50 next month, maybe I'll incorporate it into a bike present for myself!

This was such an obvious purchase. I sat back to be polite and let all the
smart money buy them up. When I emailed Jacquie she still had headsets to
sell. So I bought a headset and a chain. I'll sit back again to let the
smart money buy what remains, but after my politeness runs out, I might
