FSAtop stockbottom

[Sshields32]

Does anyone else rock a FSA pig top cup + bearings and a stock bottom cup + bearings?
Mine spins like a dream and i was wondering if anyone else use this set up.

 

[russian serjey]

yea i have it like hat right now..you dont need the botttom...haha..i lost almost all my bottom bearings..i had 6 left..so yea FSA pig top and stock pro model bottem with SR threadless fork..

 

[team_punishment]

i have 2 FSA top cups in mine. spins like a dream.....

 

[Sshields32]

I think it actually works a lot better then a fsa top and bottom.
My bottom cage broke on my pig. and all the balls fell out.

 

[Jake ODonnell]

yeah same here ^^^

im ridding a fsa top cup
and a logic bottom cup

 

[Sshields32]

whats logic?
Just a different kind of headset?

 

[ojfross]

u no the fsa top cup is the same as a stock bottom cup, go look at them haha

 

[lewiscrampton]

the bottom cup is wider, is it not?
therefore you'd need a larger bearing race thing
and larger bearings for the headset.

well not for me. I used to run them like that and it was way slower than when I installed both fsa cups afterwards. But it might also have had something to do with the fact that I installed the fsa cups with a headset press which made them way more even..

 

[Sshields32]

I wish i had a headset press. So expensive though.
When i ran a top and bottom Fsa it was slow.
Then i put the stock bottom on and it was sooooo fast.
It might have been the bearings but im not sure. I love my headset though.

 

[scooters]

i have fsa top and cane creek bottom....the normal stock cane creek cups you find on haro's.....also with the ring you put on the fork......it spins so fast

Are you shitting me? All you need is a threaded rod, a bunch of big ass washers, two nuts, and two wrenches which can all be purchased at a hardware store for cheap..

 

[Sshields32]

Im waayyyyyy to lazy to put that together, id rather buy a really one which are a lot of money, ill buy that stuff eventually but not soon. I have like 32 cents.

yeah, a different headset.
its really ghetto, haha but almost identical to a stock razor cup

but its all good, because im ordering a chris king sealed headset soon.

 

[Mario Rocchio]

Cane creek tank 2 top and stock bottom.

its yum.

 

[taylor]

im running a fsa sealed dh pro coast me 45$$$ but its worth it all my friends say it is so smooth but there is one set back to sealed they spin slower but way smother and stronger

 

[scooterkris]

u dont even need any of that crap 2 get ur headset cups in. u just chuck ur headtube with the cups loose on the ends in a vice snd squeeze them in just make sure there not crooked.

 

[stukwon-do]

...yeah, or just bash it witha hammer with a piece of 4x2 inbetween the 2 Lol

haha, ghetto child; thats exactly what i did.
BTW just run a stock headset with some 3 in 1 lube inside, it is the same as most brand name headsets.

 

[Mario Rocchio]

You cant run threaded headsets with threadless forks. And I highly doubt that its the same as most brand name headsets because most brand name headsets are threadless.
