- I've got a question. My headset grinds a little. Although
- I saw some roughness in the races (pitting I guess) about 8
- months ago when I repacked it, the headset has no indexing.
- I'm wondering if I should just repack it with new bearings
- (fast and cheap), or if having a headset in brand new cond-
- ition is really desirable. Getting a new one would mean
- bucks and leaving the bike at the shop. What do you think?
- Repack or replace? Thanks a lot in advance.
