Headset help - Tange frame - mini / jr
« on: September 22, 2012, 12:28 PM »
A while ago I bought a NOS Tange mini / jr frame and forks and am trying to build it.  Only problem is finding a headset that fits.  The head tube has an inside diameter of 29mm.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the tip.  Does that cup have 30.2 (as in millimeters) stamped on the sides?  If so, it will not fit.

I have a NOS Black Headset that I bought for a build ages ago and the cups are not wide enough for a standard frame, just measured the width of the cups where they insert into the frame and they seem to be approx 29mm

If you're interested in it, drop me a PM.  :daumenhoch:

Quite often mini frames have a road bike head tube  :daumenhoch:
