The top part of the solid headset includes a tiny washer that goes between the headset bearing and the locking mechanism. It is basically a washer that slants 45 degrees towards the inside. if you have an extra one, you could put it on top of an integrated bearing race on a modern fork to replace the bottom race of a solid headset.

I'm in talks with some one about a new frame and I was wondering if any one knew the dimensions of a 30t mds with extra guard. I'm wanting a nice straight chain line. I emailed odyssey and haven't heard back from them yet.

only frame i have had that clears decently sized tires and a flipped 30t mds is a ian/2nd wave. 3rd wave probably clears em too, but not the broadcaster. soundwave might be your best bet if you want some decent tire clearance too.

I'm talking to spooky Dave at the moment. We are trying to see if he thinks he can clear it with a single or double bend back end. He doesn't have the tooling for a wishbone at the moment. He was also the first person to get back to me out of the frame builders that I know off

So I've noticed this is happening on both of my road bike tyres, some kind of thread keeps coming away round the entire tyre. They're Conti GP4000s. Is it a problem meaning they need replacing to avoid some kind of blow out? If so I'll be pissed off, cant have done more than 1000 miles on these!
