I'm trying to sort myself a headset for my new DMR Bolt Long but I'm struggling. I'm running tapered 1.1/8 - 1.5 forks.

I hate headsets and numbers and all that malarkey. The info I have found so far is -

http://outlet.upgradebikes.co.uk/Outlet/Headsets/For-DMR-Frames/For-Bolt-Long

The recommended headset (in the second link) is out of stock at upgrade and I'm not sure if the same headset is this one or not -

My head is spinning

They seem to be the same but I would call DMR or Upgrade before pressing the buy button.

The frame specs should give you the actual dimensions of the headtube, both of those links are a bit too vague in my opinion.

Cane Creek has a really good headset finder here> http://www.canecreek.com/headset-fit-finder <which says the CRC headset will fit but seems to only have the high spacer version in stock, if that's what you want?
