Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

I overlooked that you mentioned buying new, and posted based on the assumption that you were simply reinsstalling the original.

Old Raleighs used a 26tpi headset, most headsets sold today are 24tpi. read the box to know what you bought, and as mentioned, if it threads 2-3 turns then stiffens up YOU HAVE THE WRONG THREAD.
