• Oh, and I need to get a new headset, I completely ruined the last one (never greased it in all these years)
    Any recommendations for a silver 1 1/8 headset? Is the Velo Orange decent? Quite liked the idea of "the pig" (FSA) having read on here (thanks @edscoble ) that it comes with traditional ball bearings rather than cartridge (bottom race, is that right?).

  • The Pig’s headset have massive ball bearing in the lower cup than typically, I like the ideas that the bigger the bearing the less wear and tear.
    There is also a more expensive version where the cartridge is also bigger than typically.

    Sadly, the FSA are not in silver, check the M:Part Elite headset? You can buy new cartridge easily if needed.

  • Thanks, I quite like this (although it's a bit ugly), feels more honest than the VO, slightly cheaper and probably similar quality...
