edited January 2012 in MTB buying advice
I would like to change the head angle on my bike from 69 degrees to 67 or 67.5
At the moment my headset is a FSA ZS4 http://www.fullspeedahead.com/products/281/ZS-4

I was thinking of buying a headset from here. http://www.workscomponents.co.uk/full-h ... s-15-c.asp

But I am not sure which headset I need. Any advice appreciated.

    The EC44EC44 is the only one that will fit and measure your head tube length.

    So is that one a semi integrated headset?

    The 1.5 degree headsets actually have a specific semi integrated headset but the 2 degree doesn't actually mention whether they are or not.

    It is he one that will fit the hole left by your internal headset from the page you linked to.

    It will make the head tube taller due to it now being an external set of cups.
