More lug detail for your identification and perusal purposes.

Saving weight (lol) and engaging more threads (I got them all, thankfully) by removing the washer. Honestly, these headsets are huge and a bit goofy on an old steel bike (or at least on something other than an Italian bike), but outside of that context they are quite pretty. Look at that lug!


I am in the middle of adding layers of touch-up paint. Tall lower headset cup! Messing with the geometry I see... Really like the slender and "drawn out" design of the fork crown. Probably my favorite look.


Side view of lower head lug. No forward offset 3Rensho fork crown on this thing!
