    How about specifying which headset you've got...
    You could measure them and buy some replacements from a bearing retailer... internal, external diameter an thickness is what you need. If they have rounded edges you might have troubles to find them though...
    A complete change of headset won't lead to bankrupcy... 30 quid or so

    Would the Boardman not have a drop in integrated headset? So onlt able toi replace complete assembly?

    Ah yes - this from the Halfords website

    "It is a semi-integrated design, the same as an FSA No 11. Halfords supply it in store on item code 265264"

    £20 from Halfords. Less from others possibly.
