When I assemble common thread-less non-integrated headsets I only tighten down the preload bolt a
small amount to get the right amount of tension. I find that when I assemble the IS-6 integrated
headset, which uses angular-contact cartridge-bearings, on my 2002 Litespeed I have to torque down
the preload bolt a fair amount to get rid of the "rocking" in the head-tube. Even under this high
amount of pressure the headset still moves freely with no unusual amount of tension. Is this normal?
Has anyone else had experience with this same setup?
Any help from the group would be appreciated.
