Headset - I just use Cane Creek. Not silly money and work absolutely fine.
Bars - Try any low rise MTB flat and cut them down accordingly. Spesh XC bars are good and cheap!
Rack - I don’t use one so no wisdom here I’m afraid!
The best upgrade I did was a set of carbon forks. Makes a massive difference to the way the bike handles and feels, especially if you do many hillier miles on it!

Just bought a de-badged second hand surly Steamroller in drink more water, took it out today and it's so much damn fun! Just wondered if anyone here had any recommendations for a few components, I want to swap some stuff out straight away and leave some stuff for a later date.
Any recommendations for the following would be really appreciated:
Headset - currently running the stock cane creek and it feels a bit meh, heard CK is the best option? What exact headset of theres would I need and are there any decent cheaper alternatives?
Bars - running some old risers that are chrome and don't fit the look, any small risers or flats that work well on the roller?
Front racks - Any that fit the roller as it doesn't have any info on the Surly page (doesn't seem to fit any of their racks?)
Cheers guys!!
