I have a gt verb with a tapered loose ball bearing headset, I am unable to find a replacement bearing so looking to put a new headset in. Can anyone advise me on what cheap headset i need. I can't seem to work out which one i need.
Thank you in advance
If it looks like [url=
]the one on GT's website[/url], I'd guess ZS tapered ([url= http://s.wiggle.co.uk/images/hope-headset-guide.pdf ]ZS44/28.6 top with ZS56/40 bottom[/url]).
http://www.gtbicycles.com/usa_en/2017/bikes/mountain-fullsuspension/verb-comp Specs say it's fitted with an FSA Orbit C-40-B which is here http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/fsa-orbit-c-40-acb-1-5-headset-no-42-acb-/rp-prod84328 so looks like 42/52 If the CRC site is correct.
PSA - if you do need a new headset rather than just a bearing then you can get the Orbit C-40 on ebay for around £20 compared to CRC etc. Just bought one myself.
