Hey folks,

The time has come to replace my headset, I have a Kona Cinder Cone 2012, I fancy one of the Nukeproof headsets (to go with the Nukeproof bars I am running), but entirely unsure of what size to order...how do you work this out? On the Kona specs it says it runs a TH no.10 headset...means nothing to me, not mechanically minded whatsoever. Thanks in advance!

Confirm the type; this may [url= http://www.hopetech.com/webtop/modules/_repository/documents/HOPEHEADSETS2011Web.pdf ]help![/url]

Hactually, I just found out you have a semi-integrated headset (44mm)

I'm just about to replace the Nukeproof headset that came with my frame for a Hope (it's not dead, I just want to coordinate a bit more). I have a 44IESS (top cup sits inside, bottom cup sits outside) the same as this:

It's for standard steerers. Let me know if you want it: shameer AT gmx .co.uk

Completely unimpressed with my Nukeproof but if someone is offering you one then give it a go. Sealing is v poor, I'll be buying a Hope bottom cup next time.
For now I've replaced the bearings with Cane Creek ones.
