just the bottom cup
i think i have a 1.1/8 one
will look tomorrow if you remind me.

anyone else help me out please

will have a go!
b4 gyro tabs were fairly standard on frames, they used a cable hanger type thing which u fitted between your top headset cup and the top of the headtube.
i'll have a look tonight and see if i have one, which u can have no probs.
I know i've at least one here, but it may be for a 1" headset, not the newer 1 1/8".
will let you know later.

thanks mate that sounds cool if you can find it greg
-
you're in luck!
got top and btm tabs from an sst oryg to suit the 1 1/8" headset.
only thing that is different between the oryg and the gyro is the size of the threads on the adjuster barrels.
(jeez, ignore the dodgy perspective on the pics. they are a matching pair, ;))
the cables usually come with both, but i probably also have these if u need some?
