I'm overhauling a 1973 Schwinn World Voyageur.
The headset cups read 30.0 on a digital caliper; the fork crown race is 26.4.
Most headsets I've looked at ship with 27.0 races combined with 30.0 cups.
Can I substitute a 26.4 crown race from within the same manufacturer family?
Say, this:

with this?
