Headset properly seated?

LBS moved all parts from one frame to another. The headset seems to be a little “uneven”. The pictures are seen from the left side of the bike (right side closer to the rear of the bike).

Does it matter?

If it feels OK it’s probably fine.

Might be worth checking the various surfaces for anything stuck in there, and the headset cup being in fully.

Probably the paint on the frame causing the headset not to sit properly. You could ask them to ‘face’ the headtube so its perfectly flat. I would have thought they would have done this already or is it not done any more?

Bolt in starnut wasn’t really tightened. Don’t think there’s play now. I’ll check the headset cup!

They said they had done facing.

I’ll just ride the thing 🙂

I suspect it will settle in with weight on it and need adjusting. Its certainly not right as is.

Hmm, okay. Rode it pretty fast and hard today. Still the same.
