  • Please Help. Replacing an Orange P7 headset…

    Just ordered some new forks for my 2009 Orange P7. I thought i’d replace the headset at the same time as it’s a cheapy and is now 2 years old. I believe the current headset is an FSA TH 357 but cannot find any info online to help me pick a replacement. Does it have to be so flippin’ complicated?!?!

    Can anybody point my in the direction of a good/great replacement? I’d rather spend more and not worry about replacing again in the future.

    It’s a standard 1 1/8″ threadless headset, if you want to spend a bit more then Hopes are good, and come in a variety of colours. Spend a bit less and you’ll get an FSA XL11 or Cane Creek(S3 I think)in a similar spec to the Hope.
