I had a lot of hassle trying to get the headset to work. The "Kooka Kolour" headset that had come with the bike had a crown race that lay flat, which meant it was slightly recessed, which meant that when it was tightened the lower headset cup always rubbed against the top of the fork. I assume this was an attempt at sabotage from the Chris King lobby. Swapping the crown race with a normal one worked, but by that point I thought I may as well fit the entire normal headset and put the kooks one "In a box".
