Tuned and Synch'ed
so, I installed the cups from Ed Milich and the new tapered rollers- yay. However, I noted that the increased effective length of the headset now means that i only have about 11mm of thread sticking out the top. it's enough to thread on the top nut- but not enough for a lock nut (reusing the old threaded top nut as well would make me sleep better). I would have to install some sort of spacing washer, as the upper plastic dust cap gets crushed by the top clamp. I know that the top triple clamp will lock this nut in place - but is this the accepted install? PLEASE don't tell me i have to cut and weld an extension on the threaded tube.
Anyone been through this?
