Stupid Headset question . . .

<< < (2/4) > >>

I take it the headset you have are new 1" headset where the crown race is bigger :daumenhoch:

You need an old headset like a tioga beartrap 2 or Oddysey dynotron or something of that era.

Alans has some tange that will do the job http://www.alansbmx.com/product_info.php?cPath=116_122&products_id=3002

But not all crown races are the same :daumenhoch:

rick1970:
Hes tried the old set off the dp too should that not have worked tho ?

brettypeeps:
On my DP it is a good interference fit for the cups and crown race. Bear trap 2 I had a selection of other 1" headers and all them were loose. I then tried a dynotron and that was a tighter fit. If it was my bike I would be fitting either of those two or the tange mx2.
Pork chop has the beartrap 2
Alans the tange mx2
JT smooth might have a dynotron
