new headset bearings ?

Re: new headset bearings ?
the exact sizes of these bearings can be found in an FSA catalogue (IIRC). You can cross-ref them using the sizes and maybe find an alternative that way. However do note that there are three linear dimensions and two angles, making five characteristics (or more, there are sometimes funny lips) in total. They all have to match perfectly.
The easiest way to search online is using the codes TH-073 and TH-870. I think you will end up paying about £15 each for the bearings, a bit less perhaps if you go to kinetic bearings.
cheers
