    I Picked up a new frame from PX on Saturday, the only headsets they had to fit in stock were the On One branded ITS ones. There just the same as the Planet X and FSA ones, just different branding. Cost £29.99.

    Whilst we are at it , big up to PLANET X on customer service. Fitted my Headset for Nowt, and threw in 31.6mm seatpost for nowt, because like a numpty I turned up on a Saturday wanting a Guru Blue frame without asking them to get it out off Bonded warehouse and they werent available.

    I would advise in future any one who wants to collect stock to check its available by ringing not just looking on Website.

    Still as I say , big up to Planet X for £30 of Services and Parts F.O.C for my mistake.

    I've been impressed with my bike its ridden well and holding up well

    as for bearings haven't seen the on one as yet i'll check them out £29.99 sounds expensive compared to the RICHEY version

    any other bearings to throw in the picture ??

    update:

    Bearings arrived Friday (ref: 233681) cheap as chips, the bike is transformed my old lower bearing that i swopped out a few months back had completely failed and wouldn't spin full stop, so money well spent.

    save your cash and forget £29.99 buy the CRC bearings cheap and excellent next day delivery :D


    just need a new frame and the bikes new :-)
