It’s been a while since I needed a headset. My Tiogra headset feels a bit tight/rough now and despite greasing and cleaning it’s been smoother.
Obviously you can get sealed bearing headsets now rather than the caged headest I have. My headset was in pretty good condition though, not full of mud and crap like you’d expect so wondering if sealed bearings are really needed?
Any recommendations for a headset under £30 that’s nice and smooth and should last for years. Can’t find my Tiogra headset anymore and it’s not lasted that well. It’s ok, but not something I’d recommend.
CRC have some Crank Bros XC headsets at a good price (£25) but there are mixed reviews about these on the web so I don’t think I should risk that. Looks perfect, except for the poor reviews 🙁
