Headset help....!

(1/2) > >>

Goose1:
Sorry for the poor rushed pics, but I think you'll get the idea.......



Headtube with an ID of 30mm. The forks are 1" threaded.

I want to fit a shiney chrome headset, but the 1" Halfrauds sets have bearing cups with a diameter of 33mm....they aint gonna fit. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Any help will be greatfully accepted.
Cheers,
Jason.

Moose:
For old/mid school BMX, th OD of the cup should be 32.7mm (33mm isn't too bad), the ID of the head tube should be approx 32.4 - 32.6mm.

Is it possible that the frame you have is a newer asian shitter? I ask because it may have a JIS headset.

Goose1:
Yes it is newer...A Raleigh Team Pro 07......what is a JIS?

Moose:
JIS - Japanese Industrial Standard

I think I have a black headset to fit if you need one, but I take it you want a chrome one?

Goose1:
Cheers Moose I'm really after a chrome one...but if I'm stuck and if yours is NOS can I call on you later?
Many thanks for your help by the way,
Jason.
