  • I keep getting a knocking in my CAAD12 headset, even after repeatedly tightening it. Think it might be the expander plug not doing it's job. I've used a generous helping of carbon assembly paste but still no luck. Think this could be the likely source of the issue and can anyone recommend a certain expander? Thanks.

  • Is it definitely the headset? Rim or disc brake version?

  • Turn bar to 90 degrees, squeeze brake, put hand on headset between stem and headtube, rock bike back and forth to see if there is movement.

    Also check if there’s enough spacer to preload the headset and lastly. Always use torque wrench.
