I think your Langster was originally fitted with a 'mindset' headset which were and are considered to be very poor? The headset in my particular Langster is a conventional integrated headset a very simple set up. The only difficulty arises when it's time to replace the sealed cartridge bearings if the etching is no longer visible to inform of the size and type, then measurements must be done by hand hence the above posts.
If yours is indeed fitted with the mindset headset it would be worth changing it completely, especially if it is still proving to be problematic?
This link will take you to an article explaining how to remove and replace the mindset headset no special tools are really needed just some care and patience.

I have measured the bearings and come up with the following;
External bevel 45 degrees
OD 41 mm
ID 30.15mm
Thickness 6.5mm, and internal bevel as best as I can judge using a business card place inside the bevel, with both edges contacting the bevel and apparently flush with no visible gaps also 45 degrees?
Does this to the knowledgeable sound right?

Thanks for the help guys I'll take the bearings out again and measure them.I did dismantle each sealed bearing cleaned and regreased them and they do spin fairly smoothly now,but it's just a temporary fix until I get replacements.
I did find Tange Seiki etched on the underside of the cone spacer,by the way if that offers any more clues as to the bearings..

I've just acquired a red and white Specialised Langster, possibly 2016 or 2017.It has an integrated headset with two sealed cartridge bearings which are the same size top and bottom in the head tube.
Does anyone know the correct size of replacement cartridge bearings, please as the originals are a little 'notchy' and need replacing?
Thanks...

Very nice to meet you @Evell and thank you for a smooth and enjoyable transaction.


9 speed Sora triple I bought this new as a medium 520 ,but the frame was a little too large for me so I bought a new 540 frame from Decathlon in size small and switched it over. I used it for a while with toe clips and straps as a result there is some heel rub to the crank arms, but it will come with Look Keo compatible clipless pedals. Low mileage from new,by the way. Collection from Hertfordshire.
Size: small.
