i keep running into the issue that when i apply pressure significantly
the top bearing cap comes appart into 3 pieces (the red annodised piece, the o ring, the silver race(?)) it all pops back together snugly after this with relative ease but a confirming "snap" to make it all tight.
i assume this is because the pressure is being applied in a non uniform manner so it sort of pops out due to leverage from the steerer? as opposed to comrpessing the the o ring
