Hi,
got a Scandal frame and need some advice.

The headset I have, a crankbrothers looks like it will not hangover the head tube like they do on the steels frames( i know its thicker!). Is this okay or do i need a wider flange, so to speak!

Cheers

cheers,
looks like there will be about a 1-2 mm of headset tube face showing if that makes sense, ie the cups do not cover the whole face,

i am sure it will be fine....

I take it this is the tapered version?

the frame was a reduced one £179, not tapered.

the frame looks good,but has a few scratches and blemishes;not complaining. headtube and bottom bracket were totally fine which is the important thing.
