Title: Tange 125LP headsets
Post by: Zippy on February 04, 2007, 06:32 PM

I have what I think is a Tange 125LP headset which I want to restore. However I'd love a picture of one unfitted if possible in order to help me identify what it is I've got. Cheers Simon

Thanks Steve.  :daumenhoch:

By the way did the headlock come as standard on those. Mine looks identical except for the headlock.

I'm not sure, but I think the 'LP' denotes the headlock  ???

In that case then I've just got a 125  :LolLolLolLol:

So by adding a headlock would make it a 125 LP ???

Are these the headsets that came on the Aero Pro Burners ?

Not sure if the Aero Pro came with a 125 or 300, but they pretty much look the same

Tange 125 came standard on all 3 of mine , so like the straight and V bars there were some differences

What's actually the difference between the 300 and the 125?  Anybody know?

The LP stands for Loose Proof and refers to the headlock as Moose said.
