Cheers MCamb and Kev-8. My steering link is cranked like the one on the Bullittle a couple of posts up ^. If it had a rose joint at each end, it would flop down under its own weight and flap around every time I went over a bump. I’m interested to see closer up what the setup is on an actual Bullitt. At the steerer end, mine has a double roller like a universal joint so it can pivot in all directions but not twist. That’s the bit that causes the rattling problems when it gets worn. At the fork end it’s got a ball and socket.
