This is a new product, an Oryg Gyro Detangler friendly model. The top cup has been modified to clear a standard 1 1/8” detangler . All of the normal headset parts are included, bearings, cups, headset race, cap, and star nut. See photo #1 only. The other pictures show how the headset works and fits inside the detangler.
Buyer must provide their own 1 1/8”detangler and any other hardware required.
The color is anodized Silver
Use of this item requires some experience and technical skills. Please do not purchase if you are not an experienced bicycle mechanic.
This is a conversion headset for vintage Schwinn and BMX frames made from 1950 to 1980. It is machined to fit what is known as a 1” steer tube, actual machined diameter of the headset is 32.7 mm, or 1.287”. This will allow a normal press fit, and matches the original size Schwinn steel cup dimensions.
This is a modern sealed bearing headset. The bearings are a standard size and everything is here, including the crown race, star nut, and top cap.
Please note this will not fit modern road bikes, which use a smaller size 30.2mm, always measure first!
The conversion headset is perfect for your Rat Rod, Klunker, BMX, or Cruiser. When you convert your old Schwinn to 1 1/8" threadless, you can use all kinds of modern forks, stems, and handlebars. This can be a big improvement in function and style.
Installation requires a headset press. There are no returns for parts which have been installed.
