  • Kinesis 4S Disc has an "integrated FSA type headset"

    Anyone know which model it is, specifically, and if there's something else, preferably better, I can replace it with?

  • Have a look here -may give you some idea

    Why would you want to replace it anyway ? What's wrong with it ? If it's worn, a simple change of bearings would suffice ?

    I can't think of anything better, unless you are feeling flush and fancy a mix-n-match Hope one. Not to say those are better, just more expensive.

    Oh hai!

    You need to get your S.H.I.S straight! More info here.

    Merlin expand on Kinesis' description: "Tapered headtube – 1” 1/8 top race, tapered to 1” ½ bottom 36x45 integrated FSA type."

    I know, "ain't nobody got time for that" so I've done the heavy lifting for you: IS41/IS52 40 (45°).

    Cane Creek 40 series is the Tstr fan-boi headset of choice: best function/price balance. (fifth row down, second or third column from the right).

    You're le welcome!

    PS Usual caveats apply. [I have no idea what I'm doing meme]
