Re: headsets which ones best??
What type of headset does your frame require?
Standard - semi-intergrated - integral?
Straight steerer - tapered?

Aye, you just need a standard (external) 1 1/8" headset. I quite like the Crane Creek S3 but I'm not sure they make them anymore. Failing that, you won't go wrong with something from FSA for what they cost.

I've just stuck an FSA Orbit X in my Cotic. Was cheap from On-One, gets good reviews and seems to work.

+1 for the Orbit. They were so cheap from On one I bought two. :)
