I need a 1 1/8th threaded headset, but I only have 32mm stack height.
Anybody have a clue what would be suitable or where I could find out stack heights?
The frame came with an STX one, and I'd rather upgrade, but unsure what would work.
Ta.

MAVIC one's have a very large stack height (well upper stack height), though you do actually need to have it the full length.
You could use a thinner spacer "washer" or a different clamping mechanism (grub screw style clamping cinch (?) rather than locknut).
Have a look a Ritchey, they should still make some but upper stack heights are higher than the threadless variety. (though they are about the size you want.)
I *think* CK gripnut headsets can be useful if you've not a lot of steerer, the threaded section of the gripnut sits quite low down in the top section.
