Its a crap headset in reality, 1" threaded alloy for this application is wrong.  Thats why there are so many about still, cos they werent used alot BITD
A steel headset you can tighten down properly with a PL440 headlock works perfectly.  Tioga bear trap2, YST, tange 320

Should fit ok. If it's the frameset I think it is it was fitted with a Tange 125 previously with no problem  :daumenhoch:

Ive got one on my TA and it fits ok.  Make sure the bottom cup is snug with the lower ball race, it sort of clicks in to keep the dirt out.
