Tweaked the road setup on the new Super Pista Concept. Removed 15mm of steerer spacers to lower the bars and cut a corresponding 15mm from the steerer. I think I've got things pretty much dialed in now for comfortable road use. Also moved the saddle back to allow more seated climbing. The first photo is the old setup and the second is the new lowered setup.

Set up my Aventon with a very scary wheel (it's an older model so should be safe).

Finally put them all together but it's raining now can't try it out.
The tangeseiki headset has some problems with the frameset so I am gonna replace it asap.

Your cog is slipping.
So the problem is with you buying the wrong headset, not the headset itself.

Well, technically he never said there was anything wrong with the headset itself, just that it did not work with the frameset. Two completely different things.

Tempo!
Still need to adjust the saddle height/angle and then see if the stem needs to be adjusted.
