I'm building a Marin San Rafael from 1995 and I've hit a snag with the headset. I installed an M-part elite 1 inch headset but the stack height is too high and I can't get the locknut on the threads.
It obviously needs a low stack height headset but any new low stack headsets are ISO and I need JIS. Any suggestions for low stack height JIS headsets? Preferably black.
Should add I can't use the old one, it's bust up inside.
Well, to be honest, given how hard it's proving to find a black JIS 1 inch headset in the UK, it might be worth getting the crown milled down to 26.4. It's a pretty easy job.
