88' dyno detour headset cup sizes

(1/2) > >>

Sc0tty:
Hey guys,  can someone help me out?   I have tried to fit 2 different headset cups into my frame, and they are both loose !  The inner diameter of the head tube on my 88' detour looks to be 1 and a quarter inch.  Can someone post a link to the correct headset / cups so I can buy the correct cups?

My forks are 1 inch threaded, so I bought a standard cheap tange headset. All is good apart from cup size is too small for my dyno head tube  :uglystupid2: :'(

Now I need to find another damn headset or cups the correct size, which I guess is 32.8mm ?


Any help is appreciated as I need to get the bike built soon to enter the dyno build off on here -->  http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=561882&p=1

1 1/8" more likely, as most mid school are :daumenhoch:

pickle:
88 should still be 1" threaded nick, don't think 1 1/8th was used on 88's

My 88 beat is 1"

Not even sure 1 1/8th had even been thought of in 88  ???

Maybe it's been scraped out!
