[#4030953]

I have a Yeti SB95 on order and am trying to sort a headset before it gets here. Yeti say that is is an Inset Zerostack 44/56mm.

Going by this:

Which top and bottom cups do I need? Have phoned Evans but they did not have a clue. Cheers.

This is useful for getting headset info.

Also, if its Chris King you're after ring Bike Chase. They have lots in stock. 01889 575170.

Ask for Jack.

Careful with that Cane Creek guide, the first two frames I tried out came back with headsets that wouldn't fit.

You "probably" need (in CaneCreek's terminology):

top ... [b]SHIS:ZS44[/b]
bottom ... [b]SHIS:ZS56/30[/b]

Assuming that you're using a non-tapered 1.125 steerer.

Of course, if you're getting a tapered steerer fork, you'll need a different bottom. If you're using a full 1.5 steerer you 'll need different top and bottom.

If all that means nothing to you... get whoever you're buying the frame off to fit the correct headset.

Oh, and buy off someone who'll help you. Avoid Evans.
