Does anyone know of a good quality 1" threadless headset with a 27.0 CR? I found this one but I've never heard anything about them?

Have that machine down to 26.4 (if it's steel/AL) and you have 99 billion choices.

26.4 is the standard 1" crown race size. 27.0 is not.

Thanks. The problem is nobody in hawaii wants to do the machining...no machine shops will do it and no bike shops have the crown race cutter! argh! Sooo, does anyone know of a good headset with a 27.0 CR?
