Especially ones with giant exploding nebulae in place of their olfactory organs.

Why is andrewh's cat a dog? Is it because it cannot spell or because it has no nose and therefore smells awful?

I am confused

Ska

Sometimes it's easier just to split the crown race anyway,just in case.

Hope that helps ๐Ÿ˜‰

We've tried, but it's a complicated issue and we are still giving it much consideration and some celery

If Scotland becomes independent will we have to split the crown?

Happy days. It didn't leave the front page for about a fortnight. Slipped a bit lately mind. We should probably make of an effort to keep it there, there more people who see it the more likely we are to be able to actually answer the question

Actually I doubt that - but here's hoping.

At what point does this become the defining question of STW?

Not sure, we would need a vote, one with a simple Yes or No option. Perhaps there should be 3 teams on for YESSSSS, one for no and another for who GAS.

I think Scotland has shown even on an apparently straightforward question like independence, a simple yes-no isn't simple.

I doubt it could be applied to anything this important.

Maybe voting based on a weighted scale of yes-ness to no-ness?

Will and Kate are patiently hatching combatants for a future modern-Royal defining crown race........apparently.

Has Mackem bought his headset yet? Or more importantly, a bearing change or two later, is he in the market for a new one? Things move on, I would be expecting him to want to be sure...

Has he changed the bearings? Can you get the separately or do they only come with a headset?

Would whichever team lost accept it as the will of the majority though or would they continue to whinge about it for years to come?

Yes, but it's a genuine attempt to find an answer to an important question, not just whining about a lost vote

Should I tell the seller?! ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

I once recieved a frame with a headset missing the crown race as the seller forgot to remove it and sold the forks, you heartless b******.

Mr Spoon, are you suggesting that the answer to the original question is 'no'?

When you buy a new headset does it include a crown race?

No, he specificaly asked 'new', mine was lightly used.

Did it come with one when it was new or has it since been lost? If so someone must have a crown race with no headset?

Have Giant introduced a new "standard" that does away with the crown race yet?

I've just realised - this thread claims to be 5 years old and it's still open.

Is this a record?
