    Klein headset change?

    I don't know how heavy the 3T is but when I took the MC2 off, I noticed that the Klein stem and aluminium handlebars together were lighter than the S Comp stem which reminds me what great bike the Klein is.

    Klein headset change?

    I found that there was less stress on my neck which was what I was looking for but my arms were aching a bit I think because I was having to grip the bars constantly to keep the bike in a straight line, but I also think that was just at the start of the ride before I got used to it. The shim...

    Klein headset change?

    I finally got this done over the weekend, can't believe it took me 10 days to get hold of a shim because Evans Cycles computer had a blonde week! Anyway, here's some pics to supplement The Don's previous thread. This is what the Klein streerer looks like once the headset is off. You...

    Klein headset change?

    Well the tool came today from Bike Components.....and it's the wrong one! I was looking at this ebay auction beforehand - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWAX:IT It states there are two keys on this so I made sure I told them what bike it was for and they got it wrong...

    Klein headset change?

    Just ordered this :- http://www.bike-components.de/products/ ... Tool-.html It could take a couple of weeks knowing UK customs and cost me 30.90 euro's all in so quite expensive but worth it in the long run. Going to get a star nut next now as I can fit that even with the MC2 still in...

    Klein headset change?

    Have been looking around the net this afternoon and I can see they do shims for 1 inch stems and similar so I'm really buying into this idea now. I can get the seat post shims locally so shouldn't have a problem after I get hold of the tool to get the MC2 off.

    Klein headset change?

    Sorry, needed that so I could get to 5 posts and post a link. http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i26/I ... 1_2141.jpg Here's the stem, I actually managed to loosen it off with mole grips (shock horror) without damaging it but it only went a turn or two before stiffening up again so I gave...

    Klein headset change?

    It sounds like mine is MC2 afterall then, looks identical to yours. I can't undo the stem without the tool unfortuantely, will post a picture up tonight when I get home from work.

    Klein headset change?

    Sounds like I'll have to get myself a headset tool, do you know if the tool for MC2 will fit MC3 at all? I can never see the MC3 tool about but there's always an MC2 tool on Ebay.

    Klein headset change?

    That is a cool thread, the world needs more people like you my friend. Are you sure it's safe though, would be slightly worried it slipping off. Was it necessary to change the forks? I also notice that your MC2 looks identical to what I have on my Pro but BikePedia lists it as MC3, what do...

    Klein headset change?

    Hi guys, this is my first post here and just have a quick question that I think I probably know the answer to but wanted to make sure of. I have a Klein Quantum Pro that I bought from a mate a couple of years ago and have been having neck problems over the last few months. The frame is too...
