to start with, I am amazed at how well the headset I have in my cube road bike has lasted over 5 years and only 1 service in that time!

However it's now time to replace it. But after hours of trying to find the right thing I've decided to see if anyone knows what I need.

I've got a cube agree GTC SL from (I think) 2010. It's tapered and integrated but I've no idea what size I need.
Can anyone point me in vaguely the right direction???

Thanks

Yep that FSA one will have the info you need.

Alternatively if you post the internal and external diameters of the top and bottom of the head tube, and whether each cup is external, internal, or integrated, we'll be able to tell you which headset to get.

Or take it to your LBS and they'll sort you out.

Ok there's a whole lot of information on there! I'll need to strip the bike to measure the head tube but I'll be back with info soon!

Incase anyone is interested i popped out my previous headset (crank brothers cobalt xc) and the internal diameter was 34mm so i went with a cane creek traditional headset which fit in the frame a treat.

Thanks for your help!
