They're a bespoke bearing AFAIK - not a generic item

FSA description - Headset Bearings #872 Oversized ACB

Bog std TH industries red seal. Cane Creek are Blue and FSA red, same as Ritchey I think.
Regreased and refitted a set for a guy on here the other day. Put the cups in logo upside down tho, DOH!

You can buy XLII's for £20 for the whole lot. Why wait for CRC to get a delivery in when you can just buy the whole shebang for the same price and have spare cups/seals etc?
