I am missing the crown race for my 1 1/8" ZeroStack Aheadset (made by TH Industries for Cane Creek) that came stock on my 2005 Giant OCR 3. Does anyone know if this one sold by Jenson USA will be compatible?

Any suggestions for a source would be appreciated - many thanks.

Just for future inquiries regarding the same: the part designated HS408Z08 is NOT compatible. It appears to fit non-ZS and non-integrated Aheadsets only. I'm still looking for a replacement ZeroStack crown race - anyone out there know of a source?

The headset is a TH (or FSA) No.11 AGY. I'll buy a complete headset or crown race if anyone out there has one. Thanks.

I'd contact Cane Creek and/or Giant directly to get the part number and probably a recommended source.

Tried - they were all helpful but they don't really make any replacement crown races for basic OEM headsets. However, the listed crown race part is crown race: H6062 - I couldn't find a source for a replacement. I found a complete headset, but just in case someone else has the same issue, make sure any ZeroStack replacement headset is made for a 41 mm head tube ID and and 47 mm head tube OD; otherwise it won't be compatible with the frame. Cheers.
