Headset Advice?
Hi,
I need to replace the headset on my Scott CR1 Team (2008) which is very rough. I'm unsure what I need to purchase and what headset you would recommend. I don't mind spending a bit more if that would be of benefit though I also don't see the point on spending more on something for no real benefit (not bothered about brands for sake of it)
Looking online I've seen it listed like this:
1 1/8" threadless integrated cartridge

If it lasted 6 years I wouldn't get a new headset... it means it's a pretty good one
Am I right in thinking I can just buy the bearings only? I think it is an FSA headset, but I can't find anywhere on the web to buy these. Or can I use other headset bearings such as these Ritchey ones?

Rust on the outside of the bearing doesn't harm, just clean it.
