N.Wood Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Best headset I've ever used?£10 one from Tart, not touched, nuffin.Has been running smoother than my Hope from day 1, and it hasn't fallen apart like my Hope did either. Lighter than a Pig (equally as good, though i killed mine too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt rushton Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 (edited) I bought a headset from tarty other week. Its called a elcheapo or something like that, but its a good one. It cost me £12 but thats a semi internal headset. I think the standard 1/8 headsets are £8. Good headsets for the price but if your wanting something better then go for the gu or adament or something like that. I think there £45 but i'm not certain ill have a look on tarty and edit. edit: yes that was right there £45 for adament, zoo, czar and GU ones. But have a look on ebay first, as i've seen alot of good chris king headsets going for about £50.Matt Rushton Edited November 3, 2006 by matt rushton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huge Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I would recommend either an FSA pig or FSA pig dh pro (sealed bearing version) very good value for money. If you are a fairly smooth rider the cane creek c2 and s2 might be worth a look too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M2Trialz Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 I would recommend the FSA DH Pig PRO, i've been using that and its smooth as butter and it wont put a hole in your pocket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 The top bearings blew up in my FSA Pig. Well, the casing did.I wacked a load of grease in there, put all loose bearings in. Works a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
