    Yesterday our redundant mass went out for a lunch paid for by the company (they were given little option) and one of our number had also secured funds for leaving presents for people. Apart from a cracking book on Street Art I got a 50 quid TBC voucher! (they'd asked before what people wanted and suggested bike vouchers, so I told them where to get them - so not really a surprise, but still nice!).

    Anyway, that should be the stem and headset for the Cotic X build to start I think (as well as getting them to fit it - done it once before and it's not for the fainthearted!).

    Excellent, nice one!

    I've never imagined fitting a headset - one of the few jobs I always take straight to the bike shop...

    the only time I ever fitted a headset without the porper tools was to my Hullfords BSO - with a mallet and a length of wooden doweling. Did the trick, but wouldn't recommend it on an expensive bike!

    Make your own headset tool with threaded bar http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-make-a-bike-headset-press-%26-install-a-heads/

    Or you find someone who already owns a headset press, and ask them nicely. ;-)

    Was just about to post that I had borrowed yours!

    Still of a mind to let the pros handle it - this frame is more expensive than the Kaff... ;)
