<------------------ SOLD ------------------> Stronglight S5 Super Competition headset - French thread (USED)
Stronglight S5 threaded headset - 25 mm x 1 mm (25.4 TPI) French thread - nickel chrome plated steel - specialized hardened steel casing - 5/32" or 3.96 mm ball bearings with retainers - model S5 Super Competition ... [NOS without packaging - the S5 Super Competition model was introduced to market in late 1972 and was Stronglight’s very first reversed cup and cone design (...its P3 and V4 Competition predecessors both used "V" profile upper and lower bearing cups) intended as a direct competitor to the Campagnolo Record headset - and while the S5 was initially made available having a satin chrome finish, that was quickly dropped in favor of a more traditional polished chrome look - ultra durable, ultra sheik, and ultra rare to find in NOS condition]
