spinmaster:
i've done this recently after seeing someone on here did it. can't find the thread but basically i put tioga beatrap 2 cups in the old frame got a unsealed 1 1/8th headset, took the bearings out of the cages, loads of grease in the cups, bearings in then used the rest of the 1/18th headset to finish off.

will look for the thread.

fugazi:
You also need to watch which cups you use as some of the more heavy duty jobbies wont allow the larger steerer tube through, beartrap 2 cups work well  :daumenhoch:  

spinmaster:
yep i was told beartrap 2 cups would be best.

here's the thread i got the idea from
