    I've tried all online retailers but they don't specifically state replacement bearings for the IS8-i which is the campagnolo standard. They only state IS-8 or IS-2 which are different sizes.

    I have emailed the cane creek distributor in the UK without any response.

    Does the bearing have a code on it?

    It does, i'll remove the headset and service it later and check the codes.

    I'm quite dissapointed with the IS8-i headset, its only done about 60 miles and ive already had it apart once to clean it as it was notchy, turns out the stainless steel was covered in rust.

    While I have some experts on the thread, I notice that Hope do two types of IS headsets, will either fit the mojo sl frame?
