Hope headsets are pretty well engineered & do a great job.

..... BUT...... The FSA Pig is so fantastically reliable that I can't help suggesting it.

I've had one headset through 5 bikes now. It's had a hell of alot of DH time, it's been on my jump bike & both of my trials frames have had it. Maybe it's a little heavier than others but I just can't see a downside to something so cheap that just won't break. I don't even think I've changed the bearings yet!

FSA SkyPilots are where the sensible money is. Chris Kings and Hopes look nice, but they're unnecessary, people only buy them for pimp factor. FSA Pigs are pretty good too if you you're on a budget, but they're quite heavy and it might be worth spending that bit extra.

Although CRC are selling the Ti Chris King for only £199 :o
