Old school headset problem.
« on: September 01, 2008, 11:11 AM »
I fitted this to my Firebird build: but after racing (at Leamington) on Saturday, the bearings have gone all crunchy due to dirt and dust getting into the bottom of it!

Is there a sealed headset anyone could recommend, or possibly suggest how I could stop this happening again after I clean it out?

Cheers in advance!

SST Dirt skirt's stopped some of the crap getting into the bottom race .

Sealed headsets - Hatta Kongo & some other more expensive Tange models  :daumenhoch: .
