  • the headset on my dolan track champion has considerable play.
    I suspect it might be due to my brilliant idea to cut the crown race to get it to fit my fork.

    is it possible to source a single crown race from alpina?

    if not, what alternatives will fit:
    Alpina 1 1/8 inch 36 x 45 Hidden Headset - Black

    many thanks!

  • I suspect it might be due to my brilliant idea to cut the crown race to get it to fit my fork.

    That'll be why.

    Borrow one of those, turn the fork upside down, fork end up, crown race tool on the bottom, then while holding both, bang the end of the crown race tool on the ground to hammer in the crown race.

    Less likely to damage fork end that way.

  • no shit sherlock; i think it was implied that i did a doodoo. tool looks neat. believe me, i will let a professional handle it next time...
