It's not considered integrated although it does say so on the specs about the AC's. I have the AC1 and my Lbs owner has corrected me on this matter. Now thats what he has told me. So correct me if I'm wrong. As far as integrated headsets go, Kris King also has one. They also have a nice write up on the integrated headset. Be warned. It's not gonna make you happy. Xtc |

Any my Jamis has an intergrated cane creek headset. Absolutely no problems with it so far. |

They use an internal bearing cup where as a true integrated headset uses no bearing cup. See: http://www.chrisking.com/tech/int_headsets_explained/int_hds_frames.html The frame showing the "internal" is a Giant. FSA makes an internal headset. |

integrated headset
flange is flush with the rest of the steerer tube, so it's probably a
little harder to remove with a conventional cup removal tool. I would This is the one I used on mine with no problems: http://www.parktool.com/tools/RT_1.shtml Phil |
