Will try and report back.........

Hiya Brian - all of those. I’ve heated it a bit, hit it, bathed it in penetrating oils for 3 nights, tried to turn it with big grips and it ain’t moving. Very bizarre. It’s probably easier to find another one because it’s set too hard for me as Welles looking crap because the spring needs...

Hi! All - I still haven’t managed to get the lock ring to move. It’s frustrating and I’ve tried many things, but it won’t shift, so I can only assume it’s a thread issue. Not sure where I would get a replacement either. Any ideas please? Thx!

Thanx to you & Petergt4 for the help and advice. I’m not going to get time to get to it for a couple of weeks so it’s getting a release oil massage and see if it loosens it a bit. Will report back.....

Success! The bottom bearing arrived from Germany today and it took 5 minutes to get both bearings on and the front end bolted up. Attached are the photos for everyone else’s Benefit. Many thanks for all your help. The project moves on a step!

Thanx for help & advice

Very interesting way ofcrack testing. Thanxfor sharing.

Very Kool! Spynergy wheels as well...?

Thanks for sharing. 44mm OD Thx again.

Thanx for the blog feedback. I still think my own favourite (if I’m aloud one...) is the Mysterious address plaque. Try that one. It’s not about Cannondales, but it is a bit different. Many thanx for the ongoing tool search. P.S. my ‘special’ headshock bearing should arrive soon so if it fits...

Great! Let’s see what Black Lightning finds. Thanx!

Many thanks!

Will take photos and measurements as I rebuild it and send you them. Thanx again.

That ebay one looks like it’s the one. I’ll get one and try it and report back. Many thanks. I really appreciate your help.

Sadly I don’t have the old bearing. I’ve bought the bike in bits as it was a very unfinished project. The OD is about 57mm and the inside about 45mm. Mendon cyclesmith got back to me today (fast) and can’t help, so I’ve contacted a few other bearing place including the place Petergt4...

Hiya all.......again! I want to remove the spring on my Delta V rear shock and the adjuster is stuck solid. See the picture attached and you’ll see that the tool must be a specific one to turn the ring. Does anyone know where I can get one please? Thx!

Thanx for the quick response. What you’ve described is actually the top bearing and what I need is the bottom one. The picture I’ve attached has the bearing you’ve identified sitting in the bottom cup and you’ll see it’s too small. What I need is approximately 60mm. The bottom bearing shoulder...

Many Thanx!

Anyone know where I can get a lower headshok, headset bearing for my 1991 Delta V 2000 please? This bike has a 50mm outside diameter bearing in the top of the headset, which are common to find, but the one I need is the lower headset bearing which is 60mm outside diameter. Thanx!
