Tange 303 Vs Tange 320 Headset

<< < (4/14) > >>

monkian:
I just got in touch with a guy based in Canada who's selling one on eBay.
He said about his:

the head nut is 6 sided with no rubber o ring. the
320 on the box seems to be a silver decal stuck to
the box

...it has an o ring on the bottom and 303 printed in gold on the top of the box.

Cheers

HUTCHMAN:
sounds like there are a lot of them out there. I could be going completely loopy,but do i remember the top cup on one of these headsets(not sure which model) having a groove machined out of the inside(at the bottom) to take a sealing o'ring,in the same fashion as for the lower cup?

monkian:
That's a new one on me :-\

I'm now thinking, if this is on a massive scale, a bulk purchase of 303's, a custom part with an o-ring (or even bulk purchase of that 320 part), a few decals and you've got a product potentially 3 times as valuable. Maybe it would be worth the hasstle :-\ Or potential factory error but wouldn't there be a recall / mass complaints etc? Or the info about the top section is wrong ???

HUTCHMAN:
i'm probably thinking of some thing else,maybe a different model of Tange headset. God only knows what the deal is with the re labeling issue,perhaps a bunch of left overs at the Tange factory??

daz bmx it!:
Taking into account all that has been said before?...I will give you £20 for it :daumenhoch:
