Got above frame coming Friday but not sure what headset to get. Can anyone point me in the direction of a suitable one to order
Thanks
Assuming it's the same as an XC Pro 2 (zero-stack headset where the cups sit flush with the headtube) your choice is a bit limited (and therefore not cheap).
I'm using a FSA one which has given me nearly 3 years of pretty much faultless service with the occasional clean and regrease. New bearings will be needed soon though as it's getting a bit notchy)
Give me a minute and I'll find the exact model I'm using.
any really, but PLEASE CHECK that you will indeed get the crown race with it! Much better to ask BEFORE buying.
Can't find the exact model but something like this should be right (for a 50mm oversize headtube):

Cane Creek do ZS headsets too.

It's an oversize (50mm) headtube, so MOST headsets won't fit.

Sounds like the same. If you have a model number that would be great

Poor joke wasted. See Makem's (possibly) stupid question.
@MikeWW - How come you have one comming friday - mine is scheduled for after the 5th May? Is this from current stock as I missed the first batch? BTW I got a Hope semi-integrated HS as Dom Mason @ Kinesis confirmed it will fit 🙂
