Just received a new Superstar Slackeriser head set.

Can't wait to get it on and tested this weekend at FOD

Mine should be at home when I get in, nearly a month after ordering

Well I think it is pretty well made, it has the rubber seal around the top and bottom crown races like my hope one. It sure isn't lite though. Photos to follow.

Mine is down to about 64° now

Steering is a bit slower on the up and down the road test.

I'm hoping it will be better at speed now.

But are your front forks still "plush" as these angles put more pressure on the sliders surfaces ?

Yeah man, Can't wait for a decent test.

Still running pretty plush as far as i can tell.

I am looking to fit some 36's which will spread the load, just a matter of finding the right priced set.

Lol I went through a rather tarty phase, the jersey and the shorts matched too!

It rides well in the rough stuff but it makes the bars lower which isn't great for dropping the front over jumps.

Gonna try some 35mm rise bars instead of the 20mm

Mine made a difference, the forks performed better over smaller bumps, the lower bars did make a difference too, I couldn't hold a wheelie at all Sunday but I am definitely more confident and hitting bigger drops and trying bigger jumps.
