So I purchased a bare Ti frame, no fork.
Im trying to figure out what headset will end up fitting in it. It isa non-integrated headtube that measures 33.5 ID on the upper, and 33.8 ID on the lower headtube.
Am I going to be looking for any headset with a 34 OD upper and lower cup?
Will I have to get the headtube reamed, as it seems the upper toptube needs shaved off a little?
Do I have to worry about stack height?
Should I contat the manufacturer and ask them? (it doesnt come as a frameset, so their webiste doesnt help)
Ive seen the crazy FSA measuring tool. It all seems overly confusing to me, the OD of the cups should be a little more than the ID of the headtube, and it will all fit, right?
Seems like the headsets for sale online dont provide with the diameters though....
