After a lot of effort getting hold of a replacement crown race for my 1" threaded headset it now appears that it's still the wrong size for my steerer. The steerer is 1" but the shim at the base measures 27mm- all my crown races must be 26.4mm :roll:
I have invested too much effort and cash searching for replacement parts for my old XT headset to now switch and try to get hold of another one, so I'm considering my limited options.
The shim has been designed with a split in so it's not a full circle - I'm thinking this would cause a fair bit of difficulty if I was to find someone with a lathe...
Has anyone else encountered this problem? I welcome any suggestions...
