Okay, listen here buddy.

Compression: http://www.skyhighscooters.info/DSA_Standard_Compression_System/p84553_341980.aspx
Headset: Use a stock headset. Now, the way to make it threadless is to take off the 2 nuts on your forktube. Get a crown race and put it upside down on the top bearings/headset cup on your headtube. Then go to a bike shop and get a threadless headset "wedge". They will give it to you for free, I've done it a million times. Then put the wedge on top of the upside down crown race and put your bars over your threadless fork. Tighten it down with your compression bolt. Stock headsets are amazing if you do this. Seriously.
Fork: http://luckyscoot.com/products_detail.php?id=116&catid=259


Overall, it's the cheapest and most solid set-up you can get for your money This is the way to go^^^


I hope I helped ;)

word
i thought about doint the headset thing a while ago, but i never rode it.
 
just stay threaded, i like it way better. Running an inward 0.120 zero offset threaded, with wee bars and a cane creek and the threaded compression nut that comes stock with teh pro, and its sooo amazing.
