DR ◣◢ Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 The lack of support and the fact that I can't even access the site for first hand specs and geometry information pushed me away from a brand I really like. The boutique brand that I am going with has all the information on their international site and their local agents are super helpful and informative. The worst part is now waiting for my rolling chassis to arrive at my door.

The worst part is now waiting for my rolling chassis to arrive at my door. I agree and am also really disappointed in YT in this regard. If not to individuals then just at least provide some helpful info to your "partners"...in this case Black Sheep as they also have no clue as to when, what, how. PS, by clearing some cookies/cache there is a way to get onto the German site to view the specs but that just made me even more miffed that I can't get hold of one so perhaps stay away ;D
DR ◣◢ Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 I tried with all the hacks I could (short of a VPN) to get onto the site. No go. Also had no luck with Black Sheep. Left messages on email, Facebook, and voicemail. No call back in about a week now. It's not like I can quickly drive to them and pop in for a chat.

Bomberman Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Hi Guys. Need some help or advice on headset bearings, do I need to buy a whole headset or just the two bearings? It looks like a need these parts Building the frame up so I need quite a few things its 2016 Jeffsy Comp
DieselnDust Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Just the 2 bearings.The bearing dimensions should be on the side of the bearings. Pay attention to the outer race and internal race chamfer angles. Some headsets call or 450 while others are 360 https://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/headset-standards#:~:text=The%20bearings%20are%20a%20slip,a%2045%2Ddegree%20bearing%20seat.

Bomberman Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Is that photo you shared your headset? Because that photo has bearings in it (blue ringed ones). Otherwise just take what you have to your LBSgot those of the website shows the headset assembly, basically just need the two bearings and covers Something like this I guess
