A couple days ago I posted a question about a headset with a missing locknut, and I got a new locknut for it. I got everything installed, and even if I tighten everything so tight that I can hardly steer, there's a bunch of play in the fork. Looking at it, I'm pretty sure someone mixed and matched the upper race and the adjustable race from different headsets. So I'm planning to get a new headset.

I know that I need a standard 1", but my main question is about stack height. I have about 32mm of fork thread showing, and the headset I'd most like to get (Velo Orange Grand Cru, $30) says it has a stack height of 42mm. Is that a deal breaker? My next choice is probably a Tange Levin ($20), with a 33mm stack height.

I'm open to other suggestions, too. I'd like to keep it on the cheap side, though.
