So I don't need a Mongoose one then. I can just use a standard 1" Tioga Beartrap.  :-\  :)

All these years I've had Mongoose and sort a Mongoose Headset thinking the threads were different. Why didn't I just try a normal nut! :-[ :uglystupid2: That makes things a lot easier than sourcing an over priced Mongoose stamped one. Thanks chaps/es.  :daumenhoch:
