WTB: Black 1" Threaded Headset, short stack height.

I'm looking for a black threaded headset (26.4/ISO), have about 34mm of stack height to work with. Doesn't have to be fancy, a Tange Levin CDS would do the trick. Anybody have something like that around? Or, if you have one of the nicer sealed bearing IRD/Tange Technoglide headsets with a 35mm stack height, I could make that work as well.

I have a NIB Cane Creek 110 1 1/8 threadless unit that I could potentially trade.

I believe I have a black Stronglight A9, barely used. It's steel, so not ultra light. I can look for it when I'm upstate on Wednesday if you're interested.

I was going to pick up one of those black cartridge bearing Tange headsets on ebay that are pretty reasonable in price and they looks nice too.

I recently put a Tange Passage headset on a frame. It was very inexpensive at Amazon. If you don't find a good deal on a used one, consider this. It's not silky smooth like high end headsets, but I suspect that doesn't matter.

Honestly I have no idea! I can measure it when I get up there, assuming you haven't found something else by then.

@whatwolf, I have a used-yet-smooth black Deore LX headset. Looks to have a fairly short stack height, but I can measure & confirm tonight. It's the one shown in this sold ebay link HERE. (I bought the frame but don't plan to use the headset. I can send better pics when I get home if you'd like.) $15 shipped if you're interested.

Oh, yes I saw that. But with shipping from Greece it's the same price as ordering one (cost) from Merry Sales. I just kind of wanted it sooner because I'm impatient!

I don't have access to getting things at cost anymore so I gotta go wherever it's cheapest now.

That eBay listing is a good deal for that headset.
