It seems I'm on a constant learning curve! When you think you've got something right it all goes Peter Tong!!!!
I'm helping brother build a Merida 700D FS and we were under the blissful believe that the majority of the components on he Marin he has will fit the new frame, we were wrong 🙁
Most things I'm fairly confident we can sort however the headset has me befuddled, the guy we bought the frame from was adamant it was a standard 1 1/8!headset, we thought we had a CraneCreek S2 to fit the bill as it were, however its clearly too small I can only assume its a semi or integrated headset.
Any 700d owners please tell me 🙂
I think it came with an FSA BB410, however I can't find many references to that headset on google.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
John.

Will this do as a cheap option?
Headset standards have become a nightmare, your best bet is to measure your frame and fork, and search through Hope's headset finder chart on their website to find the correct upper and lower assemblies.
It really is a ball ache cheers coatsey.
