I tried the hose clamp idea. I put the lower HT lug in the head tube and hose clamped the top of the lug to the HT tube. I then inserted the down tube and every time I pulled down the clamp would slide off. The top of the lower HT lug doesn't have much metal to clamp to. I guess my next step is to grind the lug and remove some material in certain spots to get my 59 degrees. I'm afraid this may weaken the lug, but I don't know what else to do. Why do you guys say not to cold set it? Is 2 degrees too much to move while cold setting?
