What headset is the question


A silver FSA orbit, or Crank Bros. The new Crank Bros headsets looks really nice. I had a good look at one - possibly put one in my next bike.


Ordered the FSA headset today.

It is nice to start to build a bike and realise that the bottom bracket has already been faced from the factory as have the disc mounts.

The Magura Shock has been put on for a test run, if it is OK then we will look to import a few.

You can pretty much guarantee the first years model of anything suspension related will have 'issues', they sound quite cool tho' so will be interesting to see how it pans out.

Bike is all built and ready to go.

Almost all the bits are from parts lying around the place.

Added a new Thomson seatpost and FSA head set.

Brakes are Magura Marta Silver with black lever blades.

Forks are currently Maverick but will change to the new Magura Marathons in a couple of months time.
