The cartridge bearing has disintegrated and that's one half of the bearing which is resting on the crown race. Should come off pretty easy with a Stanley knife (wear safety goggles).
The other half is in the bottom of the head tube. This could be a tough nut to crack.
Fingers crossed both comes out easy!

Replacing the headset on my mates Spesh Langster circa 2012 model.
Is this a special crown race that I haven't come across before or is that a second one that someone has whacked over the top of the first?
