Levin has quite a big stack height, do you know how to measure the stack height of the one you have got.

I am not overly sure any tips would be much appreciated. Thanks

If its ordered then wait for it to arrive. I would suggest comparing the size of it with your old one before fitting. Google measuring stack height headset.

Good choice going for Tange

I doubt there is going to be a significant difference in the height of the crown race and the lower head tube bearing cup between old and new. There's no reason why a mix & match headset can't be cobbled together from some old and some new bits, if it proves dimensionally necessary to do. I mix & match all sorts of mechanical bits on bikes. Cosmetic considerations aside, if it fits it works.
