Ok, first off, I HAVE SEARCHED. I cant find much. I am about to buy a banshee wildcard with a 1.5 headtube. (never had 1.5 before) I see a common trend in zerostack headsets and E13 cups. (right?) However, i want to know how all this relates to head angle, on DH bikes, you can slide the stanchions up and down as you please to slacken or steeping your HA, on a single crown fork (36 talas) you really cannot (without changing the travel) change the HA. In the 5 inch mode (i plan to run it in mostly) my choices are 67 or 68 HA.(depending on fork size)Id imagine that a zerostack headset would steepen the HA (alot?, not much?) and lower the BB height, a normal pressing 1 1/8th style would slacken the HA and raise the BB. This will be used mainly for 4x and slalom, with a tad of DJ and possibly XC. (pending) Do i follow the trend and slam the front and run flat bars or go "conventional" and ride the oldschool way. Also do i want slacker than 67 for bumpy 4x and dual slalom? Is steeper preferred in slalom and 4x?
I apologize if this has been asked 100 times but i could not find searching, and have no idea what to do.
***do not know what headset was used to measure geo on the wildcard***
