I'd always choose the Stronglight A9 headset over any headset. They are smooth and lasts forever with minimum adjustments.
they are also quite simple and the needle bearings are still available oit there if you ever need them. Same goes gor the top and bottom steel races Just keep them lubricated and they can last the life of the bike. The oldest one I have is the original one on my 1984 Peugeot PSV. It is still going strong to this day.
