Urgent Headset Question
 
Sorry about the yelling in the title but I'm on a pretty tight schedule if this is the screw up I think it may be. I'm converting my front fork on my Cannondale Bad Boy Ultra from the stock Headshok to a 1 1/8 " fork. I ordered a FSA Orbit DL Headset 1.5R Reducer Headset from Speedgoat. Upon reading around at work today I noticed that FSA also offers a Orbit Z Internal Headset 1.5 " Reducer, the headset on my Cannondale is a Integrated so does that mean I need the Orbit Z rather than the DL? Any advice from someone who's done the conversion before or whatever. I already placed my Speedgoat order so I'd like to be able to cancel it without having to pay restocking if I screwed up.

Thanks,

Kris

I don't know but have you tried asking speedgoat?
They are pretty good about answering questions

Maybe the guys at western cycle might know, just dont tell them you're buying the headset elsewhere :)

They weren't entirely sure. Said they'd ask Cannondale but that's always a hassle so I thought I'd ask here too.

The guys at western have only been dealing with C'dale for a couple of years, so they might not know off hand. Your best bet is to give the guys at Bike Doctor in Saskatoon a call, talk to one of the wrenches, they've been dealing with Cannondales for years and years, so they'll more than likely know.
