Just bought a fsa pig sealed headset and installed it with proper tools. But now after a while it will just stick and I can wiggle the bars and unstick it but it will do it again if I tail whip. It's like heel whip unwind it and and a lot of tail whips it gets stuck. help?

(I've got a rup fork)

It's not meant for a threaded fork. You should only put the locknut on that doesn't have a top race ( the one without the cup thing around it.)

I thought threaded forks and sealed headsets don't go together.... plus you should be using ics compression if memory serves me right. I could be wrong though due to I run. Scs and Hic which I think is the best

You can use threadless headsets such as this on threaded forks, but you can only use the cups and the bearings. You need to replace the other stuff such as the compression ring with a headset nut and then a locknut, like you would with a normal headset.

^And he has a threaded fork so why would he use ICS? You can use any threadless headset with any type of fork/compression. You just have to replace certain parts of the headset with whatever is necessary.

What's a headset nut I thought you just use the locknut?
