Low headset stack height

[mtbkez]

Looking for a decent low stack height 1 1/8 headset anyone have any suggestions?

Crank bros did a low one. Iodine or cobalt iirc.

Yes I have seen a few comments on that headset saying it was not very reliable? Also looking for something a little period to suit the bike

SJSC has a few from 25-28mm. Different specs and prices on this page and most list stack height.

MPart do a very low stack one, 24-25mm IIRC. Seems to last well too.

That’s definitely a low stack height for sure are they still available?

Tune, Acros and Campag all do/did 1 1/8" low stack aheadsets without compromising durability. Extralite and Crank Bros made very low stack ones but in my experience neither lasts long enough.
