Onza Mongo II headset

[Vitorzip]

Hi guys.

Last friday i found this NOS beauty in a friend´s store. I believe this threaded model is from ´93 or ´94.

They were a bit expensive at the time, and it was one of my favorits.

Got it for free from that friend (here in Portugal people still don´t know the retrobike concept).

Sorry for the bad phone pics...

I know I still have one too. I wasn't so happy with it, but that could also very well have something to do with that I used a piece of wood and a hammer for installing :roll:

Herbold used them, so they are excellent for a Herbold replica build

Another Onza goodie which has been resurrected from the grave... but when will they start remaking Porcipaws?

THESE ARE THE BEST BILLETT HEADSET Sorry to say, lower stack and easier to install than a king. And tolerant of misalignment to a certain degree. I have one on my yeti. . . but if anyone ever wanto to palm me a spare. . . .

to "make this thread complete" i'll post mine here too.

i guess it's the Onza Mongo 1 though.
does anyone now which year this was build in? there is no year printed on the manual...

I like it in black. It is a Mongo headset, probably from 91/92, the first year they were made, i guess... :?

hope i can scan the manual someday. its so retro... looks sort of typewriter made.
