Can anyone recommend a fit and forget headsrt for my steel HT build?

Just somethind that has a set of decent seals and will last with a little looking after.

Inexpensive would be nice too!

FSA orbit MX. Will leave you change from £20 and they are great. I split the crown race on mine and it's fine.

Some sort of Orbit with sealed bearings, or Cane Creek S3/S8.

Hope isn't any better or worse than the Cane Creek S8 ime. Just prettier and more expensive.
