Langster build - headset?

[MrGrumpy]

Its 48 x 16, maiden commute tomorrow so will see how it goes usually run a 42 x16. On the plus side got lucky in some respects with the original frame breaking, thank god for warranties . Its bit heavier than the original but shall see if the rides different tomorrow!

Cranks on the new Langster are not Sugino but don't seem to flex as much as the zen messenger ones.

Ok 48 x 16 was actually not that bad on the commute in fact it was the fastest trip in this year! I actually feel like I can get a bit of speed up on the flats now. The short sharp climb that I have was actually not that different from the easier 42 x16. All in all quite chuffed, could be the fact that I have done 2 weeks on the mud plugger which is making things seem faster than they are
