Hello there guys and gals,

Am building up the ultimate cheap beater project from a broken (soon to be "mended") Triandrun alu/crabon frame and am looking for a cheap integrated headset.

Ideally free but I could probably stretch the budget if it was really un beaten though this would likely be overkill given that the frame will be relying heavily on araldite to hold it together :)

The inner diameter of the headtube is approx 41.8mm and I am hoping to cram some 1 1/8 forks in there too so a headset fitting those would be excellent.

Anyone got anything??

Incidentally will also be looking for a beater 700c wheelset (130 spacing)
a 31.8 seatpost or shim from 27.2-31.8/31.6 (coke can shim is your friend)
a 34.6??? Seatclamp
a half link or half link chain for the magic dropouts
and finally some 1-1/8 spacers for the stem/forks setup

Thanks in advance to all you wonderful folk!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
