Hi guys I need a headset for the above frame but need one with as low a stack height as possible , hopefully zero stack height if available for 1/18th forks. Any ideas anyone? I have searched but can't find an answer specific to my query. Thanks.
Nukeproof 44IISS, off the top of my head.
Internal cups, for a straight steerer.
Yes I've seen that one mentioned but the stack height is too much for what I need .
Fair enough - I've got a Cane Creek one in mine, running Hope bearings. Not sure the exact model number, but I can check on the stack height later. If you are looking for less than 10mm stack height, then choices are probably thin on the ground.
Cane creek do ones (ZS44/28.6|ZS44/30) where the total stack height (top and bottom cups together) is 12mm. Is this still too big? I can't see you getting a completely internal headset as there has to be a bit outside the head tube.
Blue pig head tubes aren't exactly long either. Why do you need such a short fork crown to stem distance?
12 would be fine 🙂 my forks have a very short steerer , 155mm , as I bought them that way for spares but they fitted my 456 and now I've just bought the pig and it has a 10mm longer head tube 🙁 thanks guys .
