I had a couple years back when spartacus first started selling them.
I don't know what the actual deal is...i think they are repops by MORI who made the original GT Epoch headsets..although don't quote me. Apparently not much good if you are using a rotor/ gyro for some reason. They are good quality though .
Nick will probably be along to tell you exactly whats what  :-\

Be aware they do two sizes. Both say 1” but one is regular BMX size and one is smaller. Road bike kinda size. They’re exactly the same as the GT ones except the stamping. I would reckon £30-40 is going rate for new.

Be careful what frame and forks you are putting it on I got one for my 83 quad was no good as thread on forks was to short but fits ok on other frames eg Haro or GT
