Check it out, the picture far right shows the device I'm thinking of.

Thats a headlock fellow
Dont think jimmy5willy is missing that bit (i say missing, its optional)

 

[jimmy5willy]

Narp, it's like the exploded drawing. I need parts 15-18.

 

[cyfa2809]

15/18 Are just parts of the hope hed doctor rather than the actual headset

 

[jimmy5willy]

But available from HopeGB?
The outers are all there, it's just the gumf that goes inside the steerer I need. And the top bolt.

Might be easier just to flog the headset for parts and buy another.
I'm not fussed about Hope. Would be happy with an FSA Pig.

 

[cyfa2809]

You have pm

Get the head doctor..? That will act as the top cap, has a bolt and replaces the SFN/expanding plug.

Expensive headset, keep it! (I'm about to go buy a new one..)

 

[jimmy5willy]

It's ok. Headset crisis over. Cyfa said to try it with a starnut and it works fine. Will probably need a stem cap bolt with a slightly larger diameter head, but there's plenty of engineeringy/bolts manufacturers round here so I'm not worried.

Now just to find a Judy DH! :roll:

 

[cyfa2809]

What do you mean stem cap?
The hope bolts that are specific to the hope topcaps also fit SFN

 

[Magsy]

Nooooo, you can't put a Judy DHO on the Lobo??? :?
Hold out for some early Boxxers! or Super T seem to fit the frame quite nice.

Good news on the headset
