Hi
I've just bought an orange 5 2006 model frame second hand, intending to do a frame swap. But when I got to look at the headtube, I realised the headset was completely the wrong size to swap across to the orange. Does anyone know what size headset the orange 5 2006 frame takes?
Cheers

Cheers, that's what I thought, but I was told my old bike had a 1 1/8th headset and it is massively too large. So it can't be the size I was told.

What is your old bike?

Sounds like yours is an integrated type then.
Just buy a new one...Cane Creek S3 is good for the price.

Carrera do have integrated headsets. As Taki says just get a normal one.
