Headset help
My 2003 Jamis Komodo has an internal, zero stack headset. Gotta Cane Creek 10 thingy in it right now. Bikepedia
When it's tightened down to the point that it won't wiggle around, the steertube won't turn in the headtube. (Can't turn the bars, wheel is stuck facing dead straight.) I was advised that this was because the crown race is worn out. I'd like to replace all the internal bits, bearings and races and whatnot. But for the life of me...
I CANT FIGURE OUT WHAT TO GET.
Please, help. Links would be uber ideal.
Thanks homies.
