Klein headset help

[Tyler - Durden]

hey all i'm an owner of a 1999 adroit pro which is in need of some upgrading. when i purchased
this bike i had no clue about Kleins integrated headset situation and the difficulty i'd now have in
trying to replace the front suspension fork.

my question is: can anybody tell me what i'll need to do to accomplish this? i have heard there is a
special "klein tool" required to remove the headset, and that an adaptor is out there <some where>
that will allow me to put a standard headset/fork combo in there.. ANY help would be appreciated..
thanks much

Hi Tyler, I would help you but,

You are not your bike. You are not how much your bike costs. You are not the contents of your
camelbak. You are not your Oakleys. Let me tell you about Klein. Klein had a plan. In Klein we
trusted. Klein says the things you own, end up owning you. It's only after you've lost everything
that you're free to do anything. Klein represents that kind of freedom. First rule of Klein: You do
not talk about the Klein headset adaptor.

HTH,

Steve E.

Why of course.

Advertising has us chasing cars, clothes and bikes, working jobs we hate, so we can buy **** we
don't need. Losing all hope is freedom.

Shaun aRe - Life is good, especially considering the alternative.
