HEADSET for skyway ta 24 help needed

[DoubleD]

ok having trouble finding a headset for the skyway ta 24
the internal cups are a odd size, and cant be found here in nl


can anybody help me ?

[Dark Diggler]

Its not an internal headset on them, standard 1 1/8 with press in cups is what you need.

[DoubleD]

I know: but there are several sizes in cup diameter
wich one do i have to buy ?

[GavinDavis]

Just any standard 1 1/8th headset dude..... They only come in one size

[DoubleD]

i know that also , but the headtube size is differend

the internal size of the headtube is 33.5 or 33.6 mm

the cups that needed to be pressed in are  differend sizes, and to big wont fit

its hard to explain when english aint my home language
technical terms  are hard to explain

i really cant find a fitting size    and pressing them in hmmz   wont it hurt the headtube or chrome ?

[Devilock]

Just buy a Chris King.

Contact Patric (Senzo) as he speaks your language.

Ok what i am trying to say is

there are 1 1/8 threadless headsets on the market  that seems to have cupsize 35,36,37,38mm  ( that goes inside the headtube)
So these wont fit
But everywhere i look there is no cup diameter size  to be seen in the description

so i can easely order a 1 /18 headset  but  if the cups are to big   its just a waste of  money
 i need cups  that are  33.8 or 33.9

Never heard of that before, I just thought a 1 1/8th standard headset fits all 1 1/8th headtubes  :-)

[DoubleD]

i wish mate

i thought the same as you
1 size fits all 
seems not to be the case 

[Jaymz]

As long as you specify ts for a BMX you'll be fine. All those other sizes are mob 4x jump bike sizes, but as said before you can't go wrong with a Chris king

[DoubleD]

I want a chris king mate
But the Mk  and my other vacation  cost me a fortune
But going to my bike shop tomorrow to sort it out
i am missing 3 tracks days till now , and  i hope it aint gonna be a day more

[Dark Diggler]
