Tecora track headset

i just bought a sirius track frame on ebay and it has a very nice and smooth indeed "tecora E" headset but thing is i've never seen one before and cant quite find anything about it on the net and i'm very curious cos it appears to be of very good quality, anybody who knows anything about them???chris

seems to be the same as "primax e" headset... OEM stuff prolly, I don't think it's anything really fancy... but that doesn't mean it isn't good...

hi tecora headsets were made in germany if i remember rightly!
i bought one in 98 for around £120's and was of very good quality its still going strong now having only once replaced 1 half of the bearings since new,
santa cruz bicycles used to use them (had it originally on my old santa cruz chamelian) so u have yourself a good headset fella!

i still have the original box it came in ill have a look when i get a chance to see what info there is!
post a pic up and il tell u if its the same as mine!

he might be dead by now.

or some of his family might have been killed by that headset, and there's you bringing it all to the surface again, you heartless cunt

threads are never too old- I just bought a colnago frame and it came with a tecora E headset. It has roller bearings (perhaps needle-I'm not sure). Are these the kinds of bearings you changed? I'm used to old campy ball bearings. I might keep the headset since it's supposedly only 98 grams if I can change out the roller/needle bearings if need be.
