Finding a headset spacer with the requirements of black, alloy, no branding is proving more difficult than I ever thought possible. Every one seems to have a logo or some stupid fluting on it. I've totally given up on the idea of mat black unless I take some wet and dry paper to it.
Recommend me one please. Thanks.

Cheers rocketman, do they definately not have any branding? I know the pic doesn't show any but might be something sneaky round the other side. 1.125 btw.
Halfords do them in packs of 3 or 5, just black with no branding.
Yeah, Halfords do packs of them. Plain black.
the halfords ones are a bit too glossy for my tastes but you can always get a rattle can out.
I think you are overthinking this!
but for the record the ones that came with my merlin and the ones I got from Ribble don't have any logos. Superstar are plain too but out of stock.

Brand-X from CRC - definitely have no branding. I have at least 10 of them on various bikes so I am 100% sure!
Thanks woody, not over thinking it I just know what I want.
do they definately not have any branding
they're too cheap to have logos on them 🙂
Bough some a few months ago to make a price break
Why do you expect to find 'matte' black? Headset spacers are anodised, not painted. 😕

Until you sort this quandry out, you're not welcome to come riding with me.....

"Deda metal spacers" are what you want - more satin than gloss, plus much thinner than the brand-x cheapies
christ spacers are a rip off. you can get them for 60p if you poke around the web.. (glossiness uncertain).
but really sounds like you want these!

87p delivered for platinum customers. not bad if you just want a few.
i happen to be just shopping for spacers..
Smiff that's pretty close to what I don't want 😀
I had a look at the deda ones on wiggle so if they're brand free and less shiny I'll give them a go.
Chris King? Sold individually at AspireVeloTech...
I think I still have a box of M Part ones in my parts bin from my workshop days, I'll look tonight. Plain Matt/satin black alloy I belive. What height stack are you after? I'll post you some
Cheers sodajim but I've just bought some. Thanks for the kind offer though.
