I have had my heart set on a Hope headset for the 456 but have seen on one will fit a FSA Orbit MX headset for 35 quid.

Is the FSA any good compared to the Hope?

Would be going for the Hope in a flash but funds are very limeted so need a cheaper headset really that just works but will last a few years of abuse

Sorry to add another thing in but people usually suggest other options so, the headset must have cartridge bearings

    MX'll do you fine, I've got one in the Soul and a Hope in the Hemlock and you wouldn't know any difference tbh, they do the same job in the same way.
