I wasn't happy with the headset (a little too much gold and not OG) and the bike rode super wierd with what felt like a very heavy front end due to the fatty tyre. It looked even bigger in the flesh.
So I replaced the headset with a NOS Tange MX3 in chrome and blue. Way more classy and subtle too. I also chucked a 1.75 on the front. Handles way better and looks the part now.
