Just stripped down the on one smoothie it came with and it's pretty goosed inside - the top bit never sat in the frame flush either so time for a new one. Don't want to spend a fortune
Anyone?
Oh and how do I know what stack height I should be ordering?
Stack height is mainly personal preference, unless you have any odd requirements with frame/fork crown clearance. I'd go for similar to before, just so you don't need to mess with spacers to get the same ride.
I've got a Smoothie too, exactly the same, didn't ever fit. I can faff with the bearings and half a ride on it's clicking and out of line again. I'd just get a standard Cane Creek/FSA jobby to be honest, haven't ever had issues with either.

Pondering the new style Scandals with tapered headtube, and trying one of the Superstar tapered headsets next time I think.
I built up a 26" wheeled Scandal for my partner a while back and fitted an FSA Orbit MX headset (from On-One) instead of a Smoothie. We've had no problems with it and it seems a solid headset and a bit of a steal at [url= http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/HSFSOMX/fsa_orbit_mx_headset ]£24.99 from On-One[/url].They only have them in white but I think that that looks pretty good on a black Scandal.
yeah i got same one for my pompetamine, still going nicely.
