I got the frame stove enamelled by Mario Vaz! After getting it back I couldn't bang the crown race onto the forks and so I discovered that JIS headsets were a thing. They seem to be rare now but basically the crown race seat on the fork is 0.6mm wider and the headtube inner diameter 0.2mm smaller than the ISO standard. Jesus. I didn't like the headset that came with the frame and I didn't want to splash out on a new JIS one. Luckily Winston Vaz saved the day and made easy work of cutting the headtube and crown race seat down to ISO standard. Cool brothers.
