this has been a valuable and timely thread for me as i just received a super record headset to replace the french stronglight in my old grand record. the cups sem a bit too large for the head, but they will probably fit with a little work. the park article is interesting in that it states the cups need to be a 0.05mm larger than the head, but not to exceed 0.3mm, which will require reaming the tube. my question: does one always ream the tube to fit the headset, or might one also attempt to shave a bit from the cups by sanding?
