threadless headset w/ short stack height

[Andy Wing]

I am moving a Manitou fork from a Schwinn frame to a Kona frame. The head tube on the Kona is
slightly longer so I'm trying to compensate by purchasing a headset with very short stack height. If
someone can offer suggestions for 1 1/8 mtn bike headsets that are particularly 'short' I'd
appreciate it.

Save the aggravation and trim 6 or 8mm off the top (not the bottom!) of the head tube.
