Hello, I have bought a Ribble Sportive frame and am going to fit their branded headset. I've never fitted one before! All you tube clips and in books appear to be on metal frames. Is there a difference in fitting to a carbon frame? Any tips?

  • Well, carbon frames these days usually have integrated headsets, so there are no bearing cups to press in.

    To fit the crown bearing race onto your fork you will need a crown race slide hammer.
