It also makes almost any bike with a King headset a pretty prominent
target for theft, if you'd spend as much as $140 (or $250 for Ti) for
a headset chances are the rest of the bike is kinda tricked out too.

Thanks to all who replied -- you've been very helpful.
I noticed that among VO's offerings, some headsets are listed as
having sealed bearings, whereas others make no mention one way or
the other.

Wow! Just exactly the problem I am having right now, too! Can't make the
Nitto front rack fit my 700c Atlantis with Paul Neo brakes. I'll monitor this

Hello Mojo,
I'd love the book, if it happened to come my way. Actually, I'd love
to give it to my wife for Christmas. She really is into travelogue
books and anyway I can work bikes into her life, it only improves my
life too. Thanks for your consideration.

Is this a problem with the mid-fork braze-on? I had no problem installing my
nitto front rack using the typical configuration and a p-clamp mid fork that

Yes, that is correct. P-clamps would solve the problem, but the idea was to
use the braze-ons --- I thought! I would rather use the braze-ons, but I might
have to resort to the less appealing clamps.

I too had no trouble installing that rack on my older Atlantis that

I totally agree. Those fenders detract from a remarkably attractive

discipline in not bidding on this, which just happens to be my size.
