I need to remove my headset. I've got a headset remover but how do you brace/clamp the frame so that you can use the hammer effectively?
balance it on your knee?
I rest it on my leg and use a sharp tap - effectively you are using the inertia of the frame to work against rather than anything solid. Resting on my leg means I wont dent the frame.
In fact place the bottom braket on your foot and the top tube beside the seatpost on your knee. Then **** it with a hammer...
Wow TJ - I was ripping the piss as well...
Don't really need to clamp the bike - The sprung headset removers that splay out will sit inside the head tube and then put a rag over the top and then give it a wack (to stop it flying accross the room) - just hold the frame with your hand - A sharp wack will do it and if not a few more will do - just wack it with one hand and hold the frame in the other ๐
Cheers guys I'll give it a go.
