Skyway baggy headset problem?!

<< < (2/2)

dordymush:
there all the same mate.
i've had 3 of them and none of the headsets fitted in tight.
if you look inside the tube you can see its been machined out for some reason  :idiot2:.
build it up and see how it goes.
pickle rides one.
ask him how his one was like to ride.

pickle:
What headset is it?  if it's one of those cheap chrome ones out of Halfords (Diamond back) then yes the bottom bearing race doesn't fit snug around the base of the forks....so you'll have play there.....i did with mine (trying to penny pinch) so threw it, bought and fitted a Beartrap 2 and it's as tight as a fishes arse mate!  :daumenhoch:

Get yourself one of those

dordymush:
there you go straight from the horses mouth.
oh yeah and dont get a hatta one as i tried one of them and it was slack too.
