Campag Record Headset

GlaucMan said:

I have two bikes with the 2003 Campag Record headset. Both of theses
units are 14 months old. In that period I have had to replace the
rubber band cover on the bottom of each headset twice on both bikes.
What has been other's experience with this issue?

I had a 2001 Record headset that became impossible to adjust after 18
months of use. I replaced it with a Chris King headset. No more headset
problems.

We occasionally replace them. Customers sometimes tear them
during removal.

In what way did your rubber band fail?

BTW an actual rubber band would work fine in a pinch.

Hmmm. . . Perhaps even one of those snazzy blue ones on
broccoli.

Spontaneous failure in each event. I never touched the bands other
than a wipr off during cleaning.
