Hi helpful people.
I'm looking for the reamers to do the tapered columbus headtubes, these jobs: https://framebuildersupply.com/products/columbus-hss-tapered-headtube-56-46-dia-1mm-wall-length-250
I've got around the small amount of distortion by fudging it up until now, but I really like these headtubes and would like to do them properly.
I don't suppose anyone knows what reamers will do this? I was hoping to get a cyclo one but they offer 'campag' 1.5", which I don't think is the same is it?
Another framebuilder I spoke to said that he had one custom made.... which makes me think there isn't an off-the-shelf option??? Worth getting a group buy if that's the case??
Thanks again for any pointers
