My allez integrated headset is worn down, ive got a new cane creek one, how do I replace all the bits?
Advice or website links would be appreciated, had a dig around with not much luck.
Thanks

    Try the Park Tool website. It is really not difficult but the Park Tool repair help website will guide you through it.

    Cane creek have good manuals to download (if it didn't come with one) so getting the bits in the right order should be a doddle. You really need the proper tools though (at least a headset press) otherwise you risk bodging it up if just hammering it in, if you can't borrow from a mate (assuming you don't already have) then might be cheaper just to take it to your LBS.

    Why would you need a headset press for an integrated headset?
