Hi
Would anyone know how I determine what size headset i need to replace the current FSA Aheadset on my 2012 Genesis Core 26.5?
Tried contacting Genesis on numerous occasions and unfortunately their customer service is dire.
It has a Rockshox Reba RL 120mm fork with tapered steerer, so not sure if headset is an off the shelf option?
thanks
Looks like a 44mm head tube, with internal upper and external lower cups - what Chris King call Inset 7. Plenty more affordable options though.
Google XX44 headset and you should get plenty options.
If you want to stick with FSA, an Orbit ITA is what you would need. Good quality sealed bearings.
Great, thanks for the quick responses 😀
If you use the Standardized Headset Identification System you need a ZS44/28.6 upper and an EC44/40 lower.
