Well the original Headset I had, which was very, very cheap was a Cane Creek one – it didnt have sealed bearings it was that cheap. I didnt realise they did such a cheap one till I took it off to see what why it was a bit notchy.
I said to the shop doing the build just fit a decent one, but not expensive. I spent over 5k on the complete bike and thought Id have a simple but OK headset. They really did go cheap, perhaps I should have speced it myself, but never haveing issues with them before I thought headsets were pretty much all the same apart from the marketing hype.
Mmm, wrong there.
Looking at the spec I need Tapered 1.5″ / 1-1/8″ (1.5″ Lower Cup 49.6mm ID / 1-1/8″)
The lower and upper are integrated. I did look at CK’s website – but cant tell if their Devolution one will fit or not. They are expensive, but seem similar to Cane Creeks prices on CRC.
