Hi,
I had a new cane creek 40 headset fitted to my stumpjumper a few months ago. Its been hung up by the front wheel for a while and when I took it down the headset was knocking a bi.
When I tried to adjust, I couldn't take the play out of it without binding, it also seemed "indexed", moving smoothly around the centre then binding when turned more than about 20 degrees in either direction.
I've taken it all apart re-greased and re-assembled but the problem remains.
Any ideas what the problem might be and whether hanging vertically could have caused it?
