I'm pretty sure the Tange Levin headsets are road bike size (mini Bmx).
You need to know the cup sizes of the headset, Bmx designated headsets are wider diameter for strength.

Re-pop Beartrap would be a better job Jon.

£25 or so, they're not Repop (as people say) as i don't think they've ever stopped making them. i could be wrong though but they're NRP if anything ;D
-
If your after a decent survivor chrome headset I can probably sort you one out for £12 posted.

Tanx for all the advice. I remember now (senior moment) i always used beartraps bitd. Then a hutch headlock as spacer. Nice n solid n stay locked. Seems to be what most of us still used. Good old tioga. NRP its is unless.....
Bodamus if its a good beartrap bung us some pics dude?
