Remember that the correct bearing adjustment is only found after retightening the lock nut back against the upper race. So some trial and redo is typical to get easy swing but no knocking looseness. With the leverage that handle bars have over the headset bearings it's easy to over tighten the bearings and risk quicker wear. Andy
