About this product
The FSA Orbit X is a 1" threadless bicycle headset with sealed bearings and includes a top cap.

Our take
For those seeking a 1-inch threadless headset, particularly for a folding bike, the FSA Orbit X is a decent option. The sealed bearings are a definite plus, promising smooth steering and good durability against the elements. It comes in a classic black and includes a top cap, which is convenient. While the 1-inch steerer tube is less common than 1-1/8" on modern bikes, it's perfect for frames requiring that specific size. This is a practical, no-nonsense component for maintaining or upgrading a compatible bike.
