is there anyway to check to see if my head tube needs to be re milled? is there a visual inspection that can determine it?
i'm hoping that if i pop out the lower pressed cup and either replace it or re seat i may be able to fix the issue. when i got the bike the headset was really tight and i couldn't even turn the handlebars. so i wonder if there is some prior damage here. i've inspected for crash damage and i don't see a single bit of evidence to suggest that..
