Wanted 1 1/4 aheadset.

Hello, I'm new to the site. I have quite a few old mtb's and have recently started collecting Cannondales. My latest project is a Killer v 2000. I'm really struggling locating a headset. Does anyone have ideas for a replacement or perhaps some other part that i can modify? Any input thankfully received. Cheers, Mark.

Hi Mark, I've a brand new in the box Shimano XT one if that's any good? Details here: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... highlight=

Cheers, Mike

Hello, Mike. Is it a threaded type? If not i'd be interested. The head tube on my frame is a little worn. Simply because the cups dont sit deeply enough. Could you possibly measure the internal depth? Many thanks, Mark.

It is threaded Mark...no good for you then? I could be wrong, but I think you'll struggle to find a 1.1/4" aheadset

Yeah, I can see myself going down that avenue and having the forks cut! Cheers, Mark.
