I kinda knew this, but you haven't heard the best bit yet. This is fresh on the heels of my powdercoat debacle. I didn't fit this, I left it with my LBS on Saturday with instructions to be careful with it. My dad picked it up for me today, and get this, he was told they had such trouble fitting it, they had to take 4-5mm off the headtube before they could do the lockring up :shock: :shock: :shock: . Would this be the same 4-5mm they would have found by fitting the crown race correctly :evil: . They also charged me £30 for the extra (and unnecessary) work involved. Can you believe it.
Shall I give em both barrels in the morning.
