Headset needs servicing/replacing and I'm not sure what format is on there. The bike is a Wilier Izoard 2008 carbon frame, with carbon forks. Headset's a Ritchey, but not sure which one, possibly Ritchey Pro. Bearings say 41.8 x 30.5. 45deg x 45deg. Don't know whether it's DropIn or Integrated or what. Can anyone help?
Here are some photos. From the photos do I need to replace the whole lot, or just the bearings?

new cartridge bearings.
one looks like you have left half behind.
41.8 x 30.5. 45deg x 45deg is campy. IS42

My Izoard is identical and I bought a 'Record Hiddenset' - NOS, used the bearings from it and kept the rest of the Ritchey set up. The leftovers from the record went on the winter bike.
This could be an option for you. Pretty sure it is identical.
