Most headset bearings have a 36° chamfer on the inner race as that's the TH/FSA and Cane Creek way.
Ugh, really? I have a Cane Creek 40 IS52 lower for which it has been impossible for me to determine the chamfer angle. It’s for an OPEN U-TURN fork with a 45 degree integrated crown race, unlikely to work then?
Tijmen-
Cane Creek do two different angles, best check their website.

If you already have it, you can measure the angle. It's only going to be a choice of two, so if the corner of a piece of paper fits with line contact on both sides its 45° and if it doesn't then it's 36° 🙂

There is. Most headset bearings have a 36° chamfer on the inner race as that's the TH/FSA and Cane Creek way. That boutique manufacturers have chosen to go their own way is their business.
