Hi, anyone got any recommendations on VDC headsets?

I know they are different from a standard BMX headset size wise.

Cheers,
Jonny

Someone else will chip in but the campagnolo road headset I think is the right type

Voris used road bike head tube diameters so any road headset will fit, the Tange Levin is also a good choice as ia the Campag one but you'd need an early 80s one. There were also a couple of funky alloy headsets bitd from people like OMAS.

I asked the same question a while ago http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,174314.msg1749968.html#msg1749968

I bought a campagnolo headset for about £40 from ebay. There are always some for sale. Something like this should be suitable

From what i've been told, I think 'British' or 'Italian' threads will be ok - I think it's the French one that isn't suitable. There are unbranded cheaper versions available too. Do a search for a Mini or Road headset, and that should bring up some results. Phil (Sawzall) had some headsets to fit a VDC a while ago - might be worth sending him a PM?
