• I've got an Avalanche but an earlier model (slightly different to yours anyway).

    Pretty sure mine won't take tapered steerer. Unless you can fit an external bearing at the bottom? and have Integrated at the top.

    Quite possibly different headtubes on our frames though.

  • Both top & bottom are 44 mm id which would suggest I could use an external cup at the bottom to accommodate a tapered steerer and use an internal cup at the top. If I've understood things correctly that is! Will get a cheap headset anyway to begin with, have found alternatives to cane creek/ Chris king.

  • Be interesting to know if it is. Although I've literally replaced mine a few weeks ago. The OG ball bearing number was dying. Replaced it with a lovely Cane Creek which is worth more than the rest of the bike combined. So nice though.
