Hello all.

Please excuse if this is a simple question, this is my first bike build.
I'm fitting a hope headset. The headset has been pressed in by my LBS and i'm now installing the rest of the components before fitting the stem.

Am I correct in thinking that in the top cup, the final bit before the stem is fitted is the top cap o ring?

Again apologies if this is a silly question but I'd rather be certain as I'm definitely going to have to cut the steerer and want to ensure the measurement is correct.

thanks

    Nope that is fitted in the groove in the top cap.
