Hiya, I've been preparing a midskool Giant Terrago MTB for a cheap commuter for a buddy.
I opened up the ropey headset bearings last night and the race casing at the top bearings was all broke up and the broken race/bearing have worn a gouge(sp?) into the steerer tube. There is a a line all round with the front of the steerer tube approx 0.5mm deep.
The forks are SR suntour items, and seem surprisingly healthy otherwise., steerer looks like steel and approx 2mm thick.
I'll try grab a photo, risky, even for urban commuting?
Thanks
