Hi, my bikes head set is the FSA TH-855, it needs replaced but I can't seem to find it in the UK anymore. Does anyone know which head set I could replace this with? I'm looking for one with a low stack height. Thanks very much, Ash

    Seems a standard external 11/8"headset.
    FSA Orbit X or MX do the job too.
  • Cheers for that, but the stack height is too much, ideally I need the stack height to be 25mm or less. What's confusing me is the internal diameter measurement. I've found this one ; http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/mobi ... -prod57088
    But in the customer question bit it refers to the internal diameter being 34mm, I don't know if this is standard, or if my frame has that measurement which is why I was trying to compare the FSA TH-855 as this came with the bike originally. (I've just bought the frame, it's in the post so I can't measure, just wanted the bearings ready to go in once it arrives!!!). Thanks.
  • Hi, I think I've stopped being thick and found that the original was designed for 34mm ID so the one I put a link to should be fine. Thanks.
