• Good observation on the headsets.
    Unfortunately often the top nut gets chewed up and rounded flats from people adjusting with the wrong tools or not enough care.
    Poorly designed headsets work loose so you grab a pipe wrench and have at it.
    I remember buying my first Bahco adjustable spanner which opened wide enough to fit any headset (😖) now I have a set of headset spanners.

  • A few years ago I inherited a number of new headsets. Following my policy of only renewing the bottom end I now have a number of surplus top bearings - mostly Stronglight as far as I can remember. If anyone is stuck I may be able to help out.
