Can anyone on here who knows what they are talking about tell me which of the many options on here I need to fit my Heckler?
its a 4.3 inch headtube (109mm, 1&1/8th straight steerer.

it would appear some are very much borderline for length (the first one), whilst others (the traditional fitment for example) are a better size. Does it matter if its semi itegrated, traditional etc etc???
oh..I did mail them to ask but as of yet no response!
whoever answers I will forever be in your debt...
The only one that'll fit your bike is Traditional, and for your headtube length you want Set 3 (check the length manually if you haven't already btw). All the others are for different shaped headtubes.
Thanks mate
Out of interest, whats the difference between integrated and traditional anyhow? I've got a hope one currently...so whats that?
It's all about your head tube shape- Hecklers have a standard headtube, what Works are calling traditional. Integrated and semi-integrated are different, incompatible headtube "standards". (unhelpfully there are various different names for these too).
So really, just the same as choosing a normal, non head-angle-rejiggering headset.
This is pretty good:

This is just as accurate:
Ah...understand now! Every days a school day on here!
Would be nice if it was one size fits all though wouldn't it!
Thanks again!
