Acros, a German based component manufacturer, has been quietly making some very nicely done bits for your bike that are just now being brought over to the U.S. They specialize in headsets, hub sets, and bottom brackets, but they do more parts as well.

Here is an example of some anodized parts that they are pitching as groups to be used to co-ordinate the look of you own bike. This particular set is dubbed “Rock and Roll” purple. They also do a “Clockwork Orange” themed set and a red set as well.

Acros also does bottom brackets and head sets with ceramic bearings that are priced very competitively. If you have not tried ceramic bearings, they are amazing! Acros products can be purchased from your local bike shops that deal with BTI or J&B Importers as distributors.

Guitar Ted has a red Acros head set he will be testing on this site soon, so stay tuned!
