Can a headset develop osteoporosis?
That is the Tange headsets greatest advantage - the low stack height. Most of the new shimano 1" cartridge threaded headset have much higher stack heights than headsets that originally came with road bikes of yesteryear. And the fork was cut to that stack height with minimum amount of spacers.
