One question for those with a 464; do you get any noise from the headset? I've done mine up as according to the book (first frame with an integrated headset) and it feels good, no play, good gaps (good as in correct, not large) at the top and bottom of the head tube. Yet when I'm riding, if I come across a crack in the road, bump or anything, when the front wheel hits it, I get a metallic chink/clink sound. It sounds like the bearings knocking against the frame, but the whole thing is done up tight with no play so I can't see how that can be.
