Best headset for around £25-30?

Dossa · Nov 4, 2012

After a new headset for my Stumpy - standard 1 1/8" threadless....

There are so many to choose from, any thoughts as to which is the best to go for around the 30 quid mark?

Cheers,

Matty

Hope. Picked most of mine up for around that, they have all been very close, if not, new.

I was quite impressed with the Token headset I fitted recently, seems well made and the bearings are silky smooth: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/token-tk737acb-heavy-duty-threadless-mtb-headset/

FSA Orbit MX. Can be had for much less and is a great bit of kit for the money. The last one I got was from Rutland and they had several colours too.

Bought one of these Crank Bros headsets from CRC http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=24987, low stack height, sealed bearings, deep cup inserts and an absolute bargain at under £20!
