Hey,
just noticed my old headset looks like it's on it's last legs so wondering if this headset is any good?
It's for the second bike so don't really want to spend a load of cash on it, but want something pretty good that will last 🙂
Also, it's for an old GT Avalanche so just checking it will fit too ? 😉
Cheers
Rob
Just get one of these -

I've had one in my Cove since 2007. Still smooth.
[edit]Unless you're after pretty colours... 😉
Good headset that (and the Orbit- not very different) Used to have one in an old bike. Cane Creek do some well priced options too. No point in spending more on a headset imo, I've got a Hope one, it's basically the same as my Cane Creeks, right down to interchangable bearings and crown races.
Yeah, got a hope on the full sus, but not looking to spend quite that much for the winter burner 🙂
Have one which has been through several frames now, one of the best value for money EC headsets out there.
