Hi
I haven't been able to figure out how to fit the FSA Orbit ZS-4.
Are there any guides about on these particular headsets? Where's the screw that's usually at the top of them?
I'm probably missing something stupid, or doing something wrong.

Thanks
Craig.

You need to fit the cups of course.
Does your fork have a star nut fitted? You will need a top cap it looks like.0 -
looked on Parktools?
it has info and pictures.
similar headset bottom to top is left to right

Nope it doesn't.
Are there any decent headsets around that come with the star nut and the top cap? This one's a bit crap considering it doesn't come with either

all that i know off come with top cap and starnut.
unless it has been taken of a bike or IS OE kit."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Meh, it's the only part I overlooked for some stupid reason... I ended up with this: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=44798
Meh!
Any suggestions of another one that comes with everything that's a similar price?
Thanks

Hmm maybe, but is there any full headset out there that includes top cap and nut along with some decent documentation/installation guide like all my other parts have?
Thanks

yes just about every headset.
for how too read park and sheldons pages.
but you will need a headset press to fit the cups and they start at about £35 so get the LBS to do it. you will also need to fit the crown race to your fork ( remove the old one first)...."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Forks are new so no old one to remove.
Any recommendations on a headset?
