Got my Big Fat Pig for about £15.

Stick a WTD ad up or scour the web.

Thanks Trevor, I've just got to decide which forks I'm getting and then I'll know if I need the 1.5 headset or not!

I'll let you know, ta

Big Fat Pig seems to be pretty poor quality though going by the rust dribbling out of a mate's after less than 6 months. Wouldn't pay £40 for one. Orbit Z is only a tenner more after all and comes with proper bearings and seals.

The cheaper option is a reducer... Cost around £12 and you can fit any standard headset you like.
