trialsiain Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) hey i jsut got trialtech forks (had the screw in top cap insted of starnut) and the headset is sorta loose when you pull front brake and rock back and forward it clicks and creaks ...dosent effect anythings its just annoying . Ive tightened the hell out of the top cap and its still not right. will it be because my crown steerer is 1mm away from the bottom ?

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 If you mean the crown race isn't fully seated it could be. How much room is there between the top of the fork steerer and the top of the stem? Just to be sure you're not just tightening the top cap onto the steerer rather than taking up slack in the headset.

stunt man t Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) put a spacer inbetween the top of the headset and the bottom of the stem the steerer length of the trial tech forks is quite long so you need to adda a spacer, if you look where the gap is of the stem (where the bolts go sideways you should see if the top cap is all the way down Edited June 18, 2012 by stunt man t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
