I am having issues with my On One Dirty Disco and the FSA C-40 Headset it came fitted with.
Basically the headset becomes loose after riding for prolonged periods of time over lets say 3 peak type conditions of terrain.
The headset is a integrated headset that according to Planet X isn’t meant to be attached to the frame and just sits against the race on the top of the headtube, and is held in place by the steerer tube and pressure from the top cap when it is properly tightened up.
I know a little about bikes but not that much either when it comes to certain things, so in my concern when this first happened i got in touch with PX who gladly took the bike back for inspection and came up with the above reason for this happening and after a brief chat with one of there guys returned the bike assuring me that the top cap had been tightened to the above spec that this would not happen again.
Well guess what, after riding the bike yesterday(38 Mile off road) the headset is loose again! I have contacted PX again and as i write this am waiting on a return phone call but have decided just to replace with if possible a Chris king headset and hope that this cures the problem.
So back to the title of my post and with my small but frustrating rant coming to an end, could anyone please advise which Chris King headset would best suit the bike i am hoping to use for the up and coming cross season/3 peaks races ahead??? 🙂
