Origin 8 headset review?

[SpenserC.]

Can anyone give me a solid review on this headset? The pro pulsion one, I'd just like to know if it's fast and smooth.

ive had it since may and it still runs really fast and super smooth. the cups were more on the easy side to put in, but you have to be careful whihc method you use because if you just hit them in since theres a little lip at the top tthe lip will be pushed in preventing you from putting the bearings in, i recommend using a vice if you have on big enough. once installed it never wobbled or stalled and so far ive only had to regrease it once. all around i give it an 8/10 its a pretty good deal fro the price.

So I'm guessing it's super smooth and fast? Thanks for the awesome review dude! And the pulsion is sealed right?

 

[michaelchavez]

its not as fast as any unsealed headset (naturally) but its pretty decent. and yes the pulsion selaed

Alight dude. Thanks! Yeah, i want a fast sealed. Because I love sealed, but speed wouldn't hurt. Can you still have a unsealed solid scooter?

 

[michaelchavez]

yes. but youd have to know how to take care of said unsealed headset or it would break in some time depending how hard/sketchy you ride
