I found this old thread - http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/fsa-orbit-xl-ii-headset-bearings

It seems though that the only bearings you can get are the same price as just buying a new headset. Seems a bit crazy, anywhere cheaper to get the bearings? I heard you can go to bearing suppliers rather than getting bike specific ones but I wouldn't know where to start.

Cheers.

I think superstar were doing compatible bearings, if you dare risk dealing with them

and in answer to your original questions. "BSL BEARINGS" have loads of branches round the uk, but when I took the bearings from my headset in they were stumped by the angular faces

Oh look, we had this conversation already - was just doing a search for the superstar bolts you mentioned the other day.

Can't find them on their site now though, and when I searched for 'superstar bearings for fsa orbit' this thread came up first. ๐Ÿ™‚
