- A gloriously detailed description on how to install your own headset. Sidekick Mia was unable to film today's showing. Email jrabikeshop@gmail.com for Utah's only 3 day Wasatch Bike Tour.
6 year's later and you still just helped someone out i appreciate this alot
Please help me, I don't have a crown race
What do u mean
@@athrowawayaccount9817 I said i don't have a crown race in my headset. You get it?
Great video. I look forward to the fulfillment of the much awaited "Build Your Bike" series. Thanks again and best regards to sidekick Mia. I hope we see her in the upcoming lessons.
Thanks so much for this series
THANK YOU :) I have been looking for video exactly like this !
Just shoving them in there dry? I've always greased headset cups before setting them into the frame. I do believe this can remedy some creaking before it happens.
The FSA ORBIT MX headsets look to be a very good design with pretty good quality for a reasonable cost.
A good upgrade if you have a ball bearing and cage headset...😃
great vid, really helpfull because i took my forks off and all the bearings, crown parts and all that fell out. and i had no idea how to put it back in 😂
Just happened to me now. And thats why im also here 😂
Smart thinking wearing those disposable gloves to keep your hands from getting filthy!
I have a rocky mountain 2011 element 70 msl frame and a 2017 fox float grip tapered fork on the way. I,m looking for a headset that would fit on the frame since the head tube also have tapered corners. fsa or any good brand
Awesome video 👍
can you tell me the size of the headset,i need 42mm lower head tube and upper to i can't find them
I have giant trance advanced 1 2017 model...which hope headset diameter shall i choose? Could you reply
Would this headset fit in a Giant yukon fx2 2009?
is that a non tapered tube frame then convert to a tapered one?
thank you so much
What size of cups
headset is it
What kind of headset you use sir?
very helpful
is this enternal threadless
Would help if you listed the model headset you used to convert straight tube to tapered.
Joe N Many times you have to buy the upper and lower separate. You need to measure your head tube inner dimensions and find the upper and lower cups that will fit.
Hi when you did this installation was your head set 1 1/8 ?
2023 still here
So what do u so if u don’t have a
Big fancy HS tool ?
I live 55 miles from the nearest bike shop and I
Have no car. Thx
This is my first road th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and I have taken it out a handful of times and so far it is exceeding all of my expectations. I didn’t want to break the bank on a first bike and the herd is a great option for getting a fast bike with reliable components. I plan on riding this bike for many years to come. Thank you Sava!
Man this video seems really cheery... like it has 2014 vibe.... oh damn. That’s some good quality for 2014.
Are you installing a tapered fork on a straight head tube?
It seems like that.. I need to do this modification too. Merida on 2014 had straight head tubes I bought a hardtail late 2014 model and then on 2015 they changed it (or I think so)... :/
So now with a new fork we have to add some more money to that conversion.
Bike cost 600$ suspension (a good one and mod) will cost higher that the frame itself... Bike industries theese days :D
But it's for safety reasons I'm doing that.. I can't go MTBing on Suntours anymore....
how would you remove a top and bottom cup?
David Ishmael cup remover tool,it's like a split tube at the ends,you hit it with a hammer to pop the cups out
Just get it!
Probably a stupid question, but can I put my headset into the frame with a vise?
Sorry if thats a dumb question, but I haven't install headsets before.
no...just get some threaded bar and a couple big washers and 2 nuts...a lot safer and a lot less of a chance to scratch parts than the wise
Vladi1295.....that is exactly what I do....but I have a woodworking large bench vise....I cannot think of an engineering vise that would be big enough ....I like the `threaded studding ` idea too...as mentioned above.
@@moonte7933 what about reaming and facing...isn't it needed?
Grease?
cups should be greased.
Yes, grease the cups.
thank you.. now i know what is a headset.. lol..
Thx
No grease wtf?
installing headset on a non-tapered tube
What headset is this?
Looks like a FSA Orbit ITA 101-1321A
Tapered headset
Where tf is the next video man
TJ Miller? Is that you?
I won’t tell you how I did mine 😬 oh what the heck some grease a hammer and a block of wood ! To impatient to wait for my mates tool works fine just makes you cringe.
