M part is the shimano part brand.
to me a headset is a headset."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Might be worth checking the inside diameter of the headtube, I bought M-part headset which is J.I.S. fitting of 30mm rather than the 30.2mm diameter used by Campagnolo.
Don't know what difference it would make but I opted for the Campagnolo replacement part as that was a direct replacement for the original part.
Now have a 1" M-part headset sat doing nothing, let me know if you are interested in it.0 -
No, it's threadless.
I offered it up to the head tube and it seemed to fit ok but went in a lot easier than the campag came out. I don't know how tight a fit it's supposed to be but as any freedom of movement may have caused problems I opted for the Campagnolo record from highonbikes for about £50 delivered.
The M-part headset was only £15 and may have done the job.0 -
Could you measure the ID of the crown race on the M:Part please?
Dangerousbryan has sold me a great 1" carbon fork, which is ISO on the crown race (26.4 or thereabouts), which appears to match the crown race on my current forks. However if the M:Part are JIS then I need to look elsewhere...0 -
There were two crown races included in the set, one is a 26.4mm the other 27mm diameter.0
