after browsing 1" aheadsets for ages i went cheap and got a Tange TGR, theres not much info about them, its one of those made for cane creek by tange. Not the lightest and has caged bearings but on the plus side it has a low stack reversible design which ive just gone and measured at 11-12mm either side of the head tube. Some of the tange headsets like this one are reversible designs and dont feature a crown race as such - only thing was it was snug to fit the fork race and i had to sand the surface a little - also the top cap is plastic so i swapped it out with a deda 1" cap i had. Seems to do the job and It was so cheap i bought another for when it wears out. Otherwise if you can afford the campy go that route - the reviews are all very good.
