Last night, I had to remove my hadlebar stem and adjust the angle of that stem and as it seemed the handlebar was a bit high. In the process, the headset is not properly seated. I am now having problems reseating the headset properly.... I have a Cane Creek IS threadless headest. The problem appears to be simple, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. The cups and fork are seated properly on both ends, but I am having problems inserting the inner flexible ring, as it wants to push back out each time. Everytime I think I have it and try to reinstall the handlebar, it finds a way to slip back out, pushing the cap of the headset back up. As a result, my fork is somewhat wobbly and there is a 1/2mm gap between the top lip of the frame and the cap on the headset. I spent two hours yesterday trying to figure out what I did wrong and I am at a loss for answers..... Any ideas out there?
Thanks for the help.
