  • i have an r500, with slice forks, which are alu and carbon i think with the integrated headset.

    i cant seem to find much info on it, apart from its 1 1/8, but the lower race is quite wide, hoping i can just buy a cdale lower race as a spare to try the new forks?

    or is there something im missing?

    Easier to buy a complete integrated headset - basically two bearings, compression ring and a crown race. You get spare bearings that way and they can be had for little money. I believe they are the campag hiddenset standard but do some digging before you commit.

  • cheers, i just went for it and the race came off the slice forks pretty easily so i can see what is going on. i did see some stuff online about the campag but I think mine was a bit before that as i can see no identifying marks on it at all!

    anyway it has new forks now and is well on its way to frankenbike and possibly even anti!
