http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/wtd-crown-raceliar! liar! pants on fire.
One step behind Dez!
first i've seen of this thread. can someone summarise? looks like too much intense information to digest. I was too busy reading about a thread about planes on treadmills from 1997 and lost a few years there. Turns out they can take off. No wait, they can't... Hang on, I'll just re-read.
Summary;
Most headsets come with a crown race.
Some don't.
Some people have tried to claim they all do.
Contrary examples have been provided.
A graph has been drawn in support of the 'they all do' camp.
Some clowns had a race in silly cars.
Mackem is watching.
There was picture of an octopus. It may have been it's mouth on display.
I have missed out on 5 new pages. In a row!
There is a fly in Dez's ointment.
I still don't know who Caren Crow is.
Hope that helps.
We're still trying to help young Mackem out with an infomative and definitive answer.
Some of us are. I don't think all of us are taking it seriously.
I have tried to be informative but there are some childish types on here who keep going about Prince Charles and posting pictures of Mr Men.
Lost the track of this here thread tonight, as I was decorating - emulsion on the ceiling. Didn't go for Dulux this time - sick of it dripping. Tried this new stuff:

I've got to tell y'all, that compared to sloppy Dulux paints............

Crown'r ace.
Did I just bother typing that.....?
Get the papers get the papers..
13 hours, and I just 'got' it. Lucky really as this thead had fallen well down the page order but is now returned to it's rightful place.
Praise the lord.

heh, i'm 40
Some people will try to claim that 40 is young.
I will one day.
You won't...you just won't. 😉
Here's a stupid headset for night riding:

Awesome!!
Is that for real?
Is that for real?
Yep - LED, lightweight, decent burn time....
It's last season's must have for night time crown racing.
any ideas what tyres for a crown race when fitted to make the bike handle like a dream?
Karma (Kenda)?

how heavy is yours?
With or without headset?
how heavy is yours?
It's like really really heavy maaaan......

I have to say, painting a ceiling with something called "white mat" - got to be risky
(in the spirit of (this page of) the thread, I'm offering [url= http://www.nakedcrow.com/ ]crow race[/url]; sorry if it's been done before)
I wonder who will have the last word on this?
not me

Not on my watch!
Am I just being a bit slow or does no-one else understand the last post?
"Caution, switch off the XXXX?"
Would help if I knew who the man with guitar is.
andrewh
The man with the guitar is Marc Bolan if that helps any?
Music theme?
Slippery When Wet was a Bon Jovi album.
The The were a band when I was little. Are they still going?
T-Rex, obvious now I know.
Still struggling with the switch and the man with the red head. Head, headset, crown-race?
As an aside, I fell over the 'Caution! Wet Floor' sign at work today, carrying hot tea so could have been nasty. Gave the health and safety person something to think about.
careful off the mark?
Ok. Got that bit now, thanks.
What does it mean though? Is it internet speak, like 'bump' and 'hi-jack?'
It's Jimmy Page you heathen - Led Zep. - you know, they did 'Crown race for't Headset':
"There's a mackem who sure
all that glitters is gold
and he's buying a crown race for't headset
When he gets it he knows,
if the stores are all closed
with CRC he can get the crown race fitting tool online, delivered free"
Hang on that last line doesn't seem quite right??
'Slip off the Page'
not on my watch
Oops 😳 Looks like Marc Bolan to me
'Slip off the Page'
As in off the bottom and I'll be at the top of the next one?
Must be my turn for a new one by now.
More likely me to take it to 11
I said me
I've missed out on 4!
Can I just get one new page please?

Yes - grumpy no more. I'm off before Manwells finds this and proves conclusively that I have no life.
I'm not playing any more. 😥
i am
andrewh - if there's no play in your headset - you must have got the right crown race.
