    New frame (Klein) old look, considerations

    Re: I assume you are looking for dimensions for the ID and OD of the bearings. The bearing ID will match the OD of the fork steerer tube since it is a press fit. If you are intending to use stock forks and bar/stem I suggest you purchase the bearings from one of the couple of painter/restorers...

    Did Dean ever paint their titanium bikes?

    Re: If you are looking at the one on Ebay, it might be aluminum. There is another listed currently but not labeled as Duke and is titanium. Call Dean and ask. I've had good responses from them.

    Klein MC2 Fork Stuck in Steerer tube

    Re: The bearings and steerer are loctited in. Klein made a tool set that pressed these out. Not sure how safe the mallet approach is, potential to damage the top of the steerer. http://forums.mtbr.com/attachments/vint ... manual.pdf

    Vacation Klein pickup- now how do I get it home?

    The shop should be able to pack it at least if not call UPS or Fed Ex to trnasport it. They may be inclined since you just bought it from them. Nice bike. I have never seen a RS fork painted in nebula breen

    MC1 quill stem bolt stuck

    Thanks for the translation help. Can't get the bolt to turn. Put enough twist on it to worry about rounding in the allen socket. Looking from below the threaded end of the bolt extends through the wedge a few mm. It looks to have some corrosion present, probably what is keeping it from...

    MC1 quill stem bolt stuck

    I assume you are suggesting to "twist it". My concern is spinning the allen and rounding the bolt.

    MC1 quill stem bolt stuck

    Any suggestions for working loose a stuck MC1 quill stem bolt? Normally I would invert the bike and pour a penetrant in from the underside of the steerer. Problem is this is likely to flow through the bearings and top seal removing lube and potentially effecting the integrity of the original...

    Steerer tube replacement - has anybody ever....

    press fit I used to have a Mag 21 that had a press fit steerer tube. Slight interference fit is what held it in place. RS had no problem in the early 90s talking about pressing them in and out. Layers have stopped that discussion. Maybe the addition of a locking agent on the subsequent...

    '94 Klein Fervor, Cumulous Grey....Updates/pics 07/29....

    Fervor vs. Rascal Fervor has a longer chainstay length (.20"), greater seat tube angle (half a degree) and longer fork tube rakelength (.10"). All other dimensions are identical. Slightly more sedate handling?
