[Closed] quick solaris hope headset question

I'm confused - headsets have got so complicated!

For a solaris with a tapered fork , I think I need a bottom Hope 'H' cup for 1.5 steer, and a top Hope '2' cup for 1 1/8 steerer?

Cotic site says: 44mm standard head tube designed with external bottom cup for taper steerer compatibility and zero stack top cup for minimal stack height

Thanks for any help...

Spot on.

For your tapered fork that is all you need (but don't forget to get a start nut and top cap or a head doctor as they don't come with pick and mix).

If you ever want to switch to a straight fork then you need the crown reducer HS136

Yes, that is correct I believe. See this diagram, second from left.

Too slow!
