on-one have a few for around £20 - which should I get?

1 1/8"
Needs to be easy to fit and maintain.
For a bike that gets used couple of times a week for light xc duties.

FSA The Pig Headset
FSA Orbit MX Headset
FSA Orbit XL 2 Headset
FSA Pig Pro Headset

Is there much difference between the options?

I know a few people who've had the XL 2 and thought very highly of it.

XL 2 for the win.

Had one on my bike for over 3 years with no maintenance whatsoever.
Took it apart recently ,other than the bottom bearing starting to feel slightly rough(which wasnt noticeable whilst on the bike) all the rest was perfect.

New bottom cartridge bearing and good as new again.
