1" threaded DA headset for $49?
Called my LBS and they told me they're selling a 1" threaded DA for $49. This seems too good to be true. wtf, mates?

Maybe they ordered one for somebody who didn't take it so the store is selling it at cost to get rid of it quick?

hey, it's your LBS. you can see it up close. go for it. if it was on the internerd, though, it would probably be too good to be true.

It was too good to be true. The dude was reading the price off of a cane creek box. he gave it to me for 10% off the shop price anyway so with tax it was like $80
