    Just fitting a Hope No.2 top headset and it’s come with three 1 1/8th ‘wafer thin’ spacers. Not seen these before and can’t find anything on the Hope website.

    Anyone know where they go?

    Cheers.

    I think I only put two in mine so there is a tiny bit of clearance between the cup and the cap. 1 would have had the cap fouling the cup and 3 would be too much of a gap.

    They’re for setting a preload on the rubber seal, usually two are about right.
