CLASSIC CORNER: HeadsetsClassic Corner is for pre-1970 parts and accessories. Please select a category in the sub-menu below… Headsets There was also another variant: the top race was screwed but instead of push races they used the same races as the headclips which dropped into the head lugs. Like the headclip sets these almost always used 1/8in ball bearings. These have a very shallow stack height of about 20mm. Tandem headclip headsets have several different standards set around 1 1/8in steerer tubes but with different lugs; generally they are not interchangeable between makes. We check the headsets we sell very carefully for pitting or brinelling. All headsets we sell are free of pitting or brinelling unless it is stated otherwise in the description. I offer some modern headsets with shallow stack heights which can be used on older frames with 26.4mm crown race diameter. I include a couple of suggestions at the bottom of this page. Headsets are one of the most difficult parts to fit correctly in part because special tools are often needed. We offer a fitting service for £15.
PLEASE NOTE that you get exactly what is in the pictures, not more or less unless specified differently in the text.
