I am in the process of assembling my new bike. I'm installing the headset and I have a noticeable gap between the top of the headtube and the bottom of the dust cover.
The bearing is seated in the frame correctly, the expansion ring is on top of the bearing correctly but there is about a 2-3mm gap, you can see the silver of the bearing. There is a rubber skirt inside the cover, I removed it and tried it but was no different.
The pic below looks like the cover is on a bit of an angle but it’s just the photo, it is straight.
Is there a solution to this? The headset and bearings and other pieces all came with it so they should be correct.
