Re: [RBW] Re: Question about 1 1/8" headset for Hubbuhubbuh

Mine definitely has more paint there. I'd likely just keep some grease on it to prevent any rust. https://roberttilley.smugmug.com/Bicycles/Rivendell-Hubbuhubbuh-Tandem-2020/i-ghB9mXb/A Robert Tilley San Diego, CA Sent from my BlackBerry - the most secure mobile device From: absolutegal...@gmail.com Sent: October 8, 2020 9:29 PM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Reply-to: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] Re: Question about 1 1/8" headset for Hubbuhubbuh Thanks for the suggestions. I think everything is as it should be, just some overzealous masking, as Laing points out. With older style headsets that head tube edge is often covered, and gets faced. So maybe some confusion at the factory on a few frames. I might hit it with some nice contrasting nail polish (but at this point not removing the cup to do it.)

There was about 1/8 of an inch of exposed, unpainted (un-powder coated?) brake post showing after I installed the Paul Linear brakes. I removed the brakes and painted the exposed part of the posts with the orange touch-up paint from another one of my bicycles - not a perfect match, but good enough. I would definitely remove the cups and prep and paint before further assembly. But I am one of those that hates beausage and rust.
