Headset Help

Recommended Posts

Hi there, need some help sorting a headset for someone... he says its the same as a Monty which is listed on Tarty as internal... but everyone else seems to call them semi-integrated. Its for a speedrace frame if thats any help, and no it isn't available normally so i can't call tarty etc.

I'm 99% sure that the following headset would fit, but just to make sure... will it?

Token Headset

I know there are different angles which is the main reason im asking, and the guy doesnt have the tools to measure the angle.

( Campognolo 45/45 and some other 36/36 spec? )

that token one is internal and is the same as montys, megamos and atomz use so thats gonna be the one, the campagnolo 45/45 headsets dont use cups, the bearings just sit in the frame, the same as a bmx headset, and also used on road/track frames.

best bet is get the picture of the headtube to be sure, youll be able to tell from that

Internal is often called semi-integrated. The reason we use 'internal' as there is also 'integrated', and that's too close to semi-integrated and causes confusion! Check wikipedia for more info.

The angle doesn't matter with an internal headset (as the cups will match the bearings), only for integral.
