if your fitting normal forks, go for a Hope 1.5 reducer headset, just fitted one to my prophet looks well sweet, nicely made with 10mm added clearance on the bottom cup and flush on top.

As I said I've just fitted one to my prophet

Speak to hope direct as I did just to confirm your rush will be fine

Where are you based?

If your near chesterfield, I know where you can get it bought and fitted for about £70

older Cannondale frames didn't have a very deep recess for the headset cups and hence required shallow fitting cups, all modern Cannondales seem to be fine and most 1.5" headsets should fit OK.

I went the Hope route on my Rush too, very pleased with it. In a different league to what it came fitted with. Think there was an FSA option offered too by LBS.
