Can't believe I did that. Orginally posted question ~2 wks
ago but w/o pic. The question is:
Is there a problem with this integrated headset bearing seat?
and the pic is here:

one pic shows top profile of headtube (FWIW).
2nd pic is top bearing seat (note 1/2mm dim. is closer to 3/4mm).
Dark, concentric, varying-width inner ring is the machined seat
OEM-chamfered to ~45 degrees. Cane Creek IS headset. Bottom seat
is comparable but not as pronounced. Click pic to larger-than-life.
Frame is 2004 Trek/Lemond Victorie Classic road ti 1-1/8 with bearing
seats machined into headtube top & bottom. Approx 7000 miles.
Have read C. King's paper on integrated headsets.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
