Title: Albion nuts on Masuri
Post by: JVanstone on April 04, 2016, 05:58:40 PM

I've lost a few nuts on my Masuri lid (old style) and I've come to conclusion that with Masuri you only have either have the option to buy a full helmet or nothing at all. With this in mind, I've been looking at alternate nuts and have decided I'll probably get myself some nice shiny chrome Albion ones which leads to my question, does anyone know if the Albion nuts fit Masuris?

TIA

No they use a different thread size.

Some places still sell spare Masuri nut sets and I'm sure a few of the sponsors on here may stock them.

Thanks, that was close. I'll have a look now.

Or... you could have some Masuri nuts?  :D try the sponsors.

But this is CBF, so I'm legally obliged to recommend you buy a new one. And then a new bat to match the new helmet. And if you're buying a new bat and helmet, might as well have matching pads and gloves right?

Thanks, found some on Warsop but the postage is fairly outrageous...

Could have some, that sounds intriguing. Not a regular on here some I'm not sure how to go about asking the sponsors.

And I would love to get all new kit this season but uni has put that firmly out of reach. So it's replacement nuts, stitching knee-rolls back on and bat-tape for me this season.

Ouch, just checked the postage on Romida... £6.50! Do they ship em in 4 seperate boxes!?

Bit more realistic. Had a quick scout around on the sponsors, out of stock on the websites... Someone might have some they don't need and may be willing to ship them out to you for the cost of postage. Give it a few hours, see if anyone turns anything up.

You could always try just ringing these places up and ask if they can post it in a normal envelope. Usually what I do when they want to charge me $15 for sending a grip.

Shrey 'Nuts' are the same as Masuri.
