The server can be flakey updating the view count: I looked at it when you posted, but not being in London have no specific suggestions.

Any decent bike shop will be able to do this.

Do you know any decent ones?

The ones i've been to don't have a thread cutter, Condor and BLB only have thread chasers which is a different tool.

The thread chaser will cut new thread but it is hard on the tool and it is not ideal. My prefered solution is pick another headset. What is your stack height needed for the current threaded section.

Yes, i had to go back to using an old C-Record style headset which is what i didn't want to do because the initial idea was to fit modern components.

Meh!

I've been recommended Winston Vaz, Mario's brother, for getting a thread extended.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
