Morning All
That evil man, Si at [url= http://www.progressive-bikes.co.uk/ ]Progressive Bikes[/url] has tempted me with one of these
The plan is to strip my Prophet down and run this through the winter, because of differing headtube lengths I need a 1 1/8 headset with as little stack height as possible.
So reconmendations and user reviews appreciated
cheers
CB for lowest possible at 21mm but if you can go a bit higher Orbit XLII at 27.5mm IIRC...Orbit will last longer and only £20 on eBay including P&P
Got both...Orbit XLII has been trouble free since I fitted it last Spring.
Hi had a look at the Crank ones, thought they were quite pricey and loose bearings, isn't that going backwards?
I do have 25mm of spacers on the prophet could lose them and run a high rise stem
If you *have* to go low then CB one is the lowest and it does come with a 5 year guarantee...which you'll need so keep the receipt 😉
As said though, if you've got a little more height (Only 5mm more than the CB headset) get the XLII...can't rate them enough.
Yup, my vote goes to FSA XL2. Been using one for 5+ years with no probs.
