Title: aero reflex headset??
Post by: Kezturbo on March 29, 2015, 02:58 AM
Hi guys if you have seen my previous post I have brought a NIB aero reflex f+f I've been looking at headsets and does anyone know if the tange mx-2 headset fits? Or is there any recommendations from owners out there.this is my first build so bear with me I may be bothering fellow owners about parts that fit save me the hassle of buying wrong parts and a lot of swearing.it will be mainly about headsets and cranks
Cheers in advance :)

tioga beartrap/beartrap 2, hattta mx10..or the tange mx2 will fit, as long as its a 1 inch bmx threaded headset variant.

yep the mx-2 will be fine, although a lot swear by the Tioga beartrap if you are riding the bike in any kind of anger. any 1" headset for threaded forks will do you. Much better to ask questions than get it wrong the hard way!   :daumenhoch:

I got an MX-2 on mine fella   :daumenhoch:

Make sure you got the shim for the seat post though. You will need it if you are going to fit a standard 22.2mm post.
