The original fork for my Donohue had a steerer extender in it with a rounded bolt head, so couldn't get it out. A friend came around today to try out my bike (he was looking to buy a similar size frame & was curious about fit) & commented on how bad the headset is. Eventually persuaded me to take action & sawed off the end of the steerer extender so I could get the fork out (couldn't unscrew the headset before). Will solve that steerer issue later, in the meantime I've stuck a fork I had lying around (& some other tyres as these clear 28mm!). Feels refreshed! I've got another fork lying around which I eventually want to use (straight blade) but I don't have the courage for cutting/plugging a carbon steerer.
