Hi All,

Just a quick one. I need to replace the bearings on the headset for the above bike. I'm getting a bit confused about the differing types and what to look for.

I have found these:
http://qwertycycles.co.uk/products/headset-bearings

That is a specific type which looks to be ok but further searching on the site and I found others that look the same....

Reading the bike from the spec my headset is a TANGE SEIKI, 1.5", INTEGRATED

I've looked at the site to try and get more info:

But again it is all a bit too technical for me!

Any guidance would be great :D

Cheers

    Hi,

    I had a similiar problem when i needed to replace my cannondale rush headset bearings. Mine is not a lefty and has a cane creek reducer, so my bearings are 1 1/8 diammeter, i purchased replacements from:

    http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=11266.

    However in the handbook it states the bearings you linked to on Qwerty, the HD 169 1.5" diammeter. If yours is a lefty then the 1.5" HD169 bearings are what you need. I followed the manual and purchased 2 sets of HD 169 bearings that have been sitting on my shelf for the past 2 months, I purchased them from Qwerty, if you want there yours for £15 posted???
