I have got a new 2009 xtc frame but it hasnt got a headset, it has the bearing seats in the frame but requires the rest of the bits to fit the forks, it looks the same as my anthem which has an fsa item fitted but which headset do i order in order to get the bits?

The new design Hope headsets do not seal well enough and should be avoided

The integrated FSA's will be fine. I've had one in my XTC frame for over 3 years and 4.000 miles.

If it's a semi- integrated type with hidden cups pressed in then this would probably fit;

Would recommend giving Giant UK a call, they are very helpful, and it may well be cheaper to buy one as a Giant spare part- made by Cane Creek or FSA anyway.
