New fork arrived for the GT, looks good so set about installing it & there's no chance I'm getting the headset on - way too tight. Turns out it's probably a JIS crown race fitting, but all my 1" headsets are ISO.
Flaming heck, why are there multiple standards for 1"? Ridiculous. Really frustrated as I was looking forward to riding it this weekend, & now I don't even know what to do. Can't even send the fork back as I've cut the steerer a bit :(
Edit: seems this headset comes with two crown races for ISO & JIS. Will give it a punt. Nothing's ever bloody simple, is it?
