I have a forks and a frame that is one of the new fangled integrated headset type. I would like to fit the forks to the frame myselfwhich requries fitting of the headset.

Anyone know of who online sell integrated headsets and what are the measuments i need to make to ensure I buy the correct one?

eg http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/Cycle/7/FSA_Orbit_CC_Integrated_Aheadset/5360013188/

measurement is just steerer diameter, ie 1" or 1 1/8"

Remember, there are several 'standards' for integrateds. Campag's 'Hiddenset' uses 45-degree 'shoulders' inside the headtube, on which the bearing races sit. Cane Creek's 'standard' uses a different angle. You have to make sure you get the right one.

FSA publish a document that lists the standard and specification of just about every headset known to man. It's very comprehensive. I've uploaded a copy onto some work webspace. Take a look, download, whatever. BTW biggish file, 15Mb or so.
