RossMcd Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 there should be a cap on the frame that hold the headset in place when the bearing and forks have been removed. get a screwdriver and hammer and get the screwdriver under it and hammer it. it shood come right out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudirudirudirudirudi Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 just wondering if you know how to fit a headset in the first place?? dont you need a special press or something?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mods Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 yea your ment to, but most people just hammer them in inbetween two pieces of wood or such like, personally i would get it pressed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom 20 Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) Just get some 3/4 " tube. Use a hammer and hit it at 12 6 and 9 ( O'Clock) and repeat this until it falls out Then turn the frame upside down and do the other side.You will notice the tube doesn't cover the whole inside of the cup, do it one edge at a time.And no the zhi's dont use threaded headsets.Good luck Edit-answer to rudoxolty: You can use a g-clamp and two pieces of aluminium/wood/steel or whatever, Put the two disired pieces of whatever you chose at both ends of the headtube and tighten it until you think its in far enough Hope i helped .. tom Edited May 17, 2007 by tom 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
