Just looking for some reviews. I just ordered one (yeah yeah i know, shouldnt ask after buying) because it was only $40 and they retail at $60. I had a regular FSA Impact before this and finally opened it up to regrease it after almost two years of abuse just to find shattered and cracked races and missing ball bearings. The Pro is EXPENSIVE but appears to be well worth it.
Anyone have experience with it?

Specs-

Campagnolo compatible
Alloy top cover
Patented alignment tip for increased durability and performance
Laser etched aluminum top cap
45/45 degree angular contact bearings
Stainless steel micro ACB (white seal)
Compatible with most detanglers

They use them alot in DJ bikes and with all the dirt and muck that they can take it should be really good.

You should get what you paid for if it's that expensive and Brayden probably gave you the best answer anyone here can give you

This is just supposed to be the shit because it uses angular contact bearings (ACBs) where most headsets use "hybrid" bearings.
