I just picked up a sm 2011 giant glory and need your guys thoughts/opinions on choosing the right angle reducing headset. From my understanding i can choose from cane creek (zs44-56), FSA option T1 44-56, and the WORKS ec44-56. Ive heard good things regarding all as most of you have tried either one. From the info ive gathered the WORKS does not use a "gimbal" and is preset to either 1.5 or 2 degrees. Im looking at getting either the 1.5 in cane creek or FSA or the 2 in WORKS. Would 2 degrees be too much? Or should i stay with 1.5? Please help. i want to order this ASAP.

Dont know about the 1.5. My bro in law has a cane creek 1.5 on his 09 glory and it works pretty good. I love my 2 deg though. Plus i dont have to deal with the creaky gimbal so i went with the works. Either one should work but i love the feel of the 2. hope this helps.
I have no creaks or noises whatsoever with mine. They bike shop that did mine replaced the crown race that came with mine though cause it was defective but other than that, no issues.
Hey I'm looking to get. A better headset. Not an angle. I really want one of the external. Types liie chris king, or candy industrys. Any thoughts? Gaint says only internal cups.
