Anyone found an alternative to the headset that Planet X recommend for most odf their frames, the FSA Orbit C-40 No.42 ACB Tapered Headset?

This one is almost the price of some of their frames!

Anyone know is this one on CRC fits, the reviews seem to suggest it will?

Yes. 42 52 are the magic numbers. The brand x headsets are great.

I used a lifeline one on a PX London Road a while back and just fitted one of those brand x ones to a pinnacle frame that specified the same fsa one.

For the price I'd give it a go!
