That's right kiddies, these are still on the menu. And yes, these will adapt that threadless fork to your old school threaded headtube (standard BMX/ballon tire sizing anyway, not for roadie sets).

TASTE THE RAINBOW! RED-BLUE-GOLD-BLACK-SILVER. These are a no-name/non-logo Asian import, but that keeps the price friendly. Tested these on a couple bikes and though inexpensive, they seem to be decent quality. SEALED CARTRIDGE BEARINGS, compatible with 'Campy Standard' integral race forks (green available S/O, but I'm not stocking it at this time).

$30 shipped (domestic)

For you guys wanting something heavier duty, the most popular choice has been the FSA The Pig DH Pro. GIGANTIC 3/16 lower bearings with a cromo cup and a trim upper alloy cup.
SEALED CARTRIDGE BEARINGS. Black or Chrome/silver, NOT NOT NOT compatible with integral race forks. Your fork must take the normal slip-on race.

PM for details, frames vary more than you'd think, especially the older ones, so these are custom made to fit your application. I'll machine your existing set for $20 (including return shipping) if you have a favorite sitting on the shelf and would like to use that.

@chattymatty turned down a Tange LAV-82 set for me, and polished it. Custom-fit for a Worksman INB; I provided the headtube specs. Perfect fit, excellent work.... i recommend Matty's headset service 100%.... buy with confidence, y'all.
 
Hope you still have the specs for the INB, I'm gonna need a headset this summer.
