Subject: [CR] Headset Advice and need to buy asap...


Hi all,

i purchased a Cilo frame a few weeks ago from a seller in Poland - frame arrived and has some bad road rash that was unexpected - but it'll work fine for my "kick around" bike until my other frame gets back from the paint shop....

Anyway - Swiss Frame, Swiss BB - I have need for a headset. It seems that my English nut screws onto the stear tube - but the headtube inner diameter is 30mm (I don't have a caliper) - so niether my english headset nor my Italian Headset cups will fit in the headtube.

First - What is this? Swiss? English? French? Mixed? And second - does anyone have a campagnolo or edco or Shimano 600 headset (or similarly eighties appropriate) that would fit- and that you would sell?

I bought this thing to build it up quickly - I need to get out on the road - the weather in the north east has gotten really nice!

Thanks
