Hi all.
I've got a 2013 Five with the tapered headtube and am running a tapered fork. I believe I can get an angleset for it with a small (1 / 1.5 degree) change but I'm confused as to what headset I actually need. I think I need to change the bottom cup for an external - anyone any ideas?
Cheers

Does that help? 🙂
Probably this one?
Or burgtec offset bushes for your rear shock will give you the same 1/1.5 slacker for £40.
About half price!
Did mine and it was great.
Cheers Jase 😉
batman - done that already and want more 😀
DBW - I've got one in the shed you can have for cheap, used for about a month before selling my Alpine that it was fitted to, fits the five as well (fitted one to a five along with offset bushes which my mate now owns and loves). Think I've also got spare new bearings, the originals are still smooth as. Tapered head tube, tapered fork, -1.5 deg. Email in profile if interested.
Awesome Steve - will ping you a note now!
