Hovis's dream Burls Ti custom track

Oh yes, I've seen those forks before. Are they discontinued? Cant seem to find them in the uk

I am very aware of his setup, and yeah, dont want to copy too much although theres only so much you can do with a ti track frame.

I did think shamals, but I would rather get something new.

I did think this, and he does offer an integrated tube but he says and i quote "Burls recommend standard headsets every time" and then he quotes chris king. Having said that I dont buy into all crap king whines about with integrated. I might go down this route actually.

Thanks, the DT RR's are heavy old things though. Ideally I want to keep the rims in the 450g range, should have mentioned that earlier. Will look into the HEDs, havent heard of them before.

Are there any other headsets with big cups like the kings? I personally feel the king headsets are a way of spending a lot of $$ for nothing other than a brand.

Forks probs discontinued. Just buy from US EBay. Thay are always there.

But get integrated HS headtube anyway.

HED Belgiums look like a sweet balance of dimensions and weight. My issue with deeper rims, is that they become overbuilt if you use a typical 32 hole fixed hubset. I'd be tempted by a 32 spoke 3x rear (using track hub of chioce), and 24 spoke radial front (using budget lightweight road hub of 70g).
