1979 vintage Edco headset-weight weenie part-worth $25
One more "what is this part worth" question.
This pitiful picture is of a 1979 vintage Edco headset.I bought it -new- back then because it claimed to be very light-and it was-forget the exact numbers.The paint-enamel is a little bit scratched worn, so it isn't perfect- functional, not ugly, not perfect- nice smooth races.
Is it worth pulling off this frame(ignore the overlength MTB 26" fork-experiment to get V- brakes on this frame)? If it is worth $20 or so I would pull it-I have several no name headsets that will work fine on this frame.
Thanks
Charlie
PS-The Sugino crankset sold locally-CL- for $60 (guy putting it to use on a 1984 Trek 770 with a worn out Campy SR crankset) I also sold the BB for another $20-same guy.The parts were in great shape, so he'll get lots of use from them-win win all concerned.
