  • So I managed to find a larger headset spanner (36 mm) that I could get safely onto the fixed cups. They came out easily enough and I've proceeded to take the lot out. Two 127mm Shimano UN55s are winging their way from CRC.
    I looked at the headset too, crown race is brinelled like a good'un, so I've got an M:Part Elite (with stupid JIS crown race) to go in there. Anyone have a crown race remover and thingy for bashing out the old headset cups? I'll ask in the tool thread too.

  • Carefully with a screw driver and a hammer? If the crown race is to be replaced anyway...

    Not ideal to put the new one on though, but I've got the tool for that if you want to come round with the fork...

  • The bulky fork crown blocks and screwdriver access unfortunately. I'll try and find the right tool to use.
    Thanks for the offer, I may take you up on it. Where are you?
