Jeff,

I was thinking particularly of the Star-Fangled Nut Setter, since you really would have a difficult time without it (can't say I've ever not used that setter to install a threadless). I don't install headsets for a living (I'd probably starve!) but the local kids all know I have my own shop and work on bikes!!!!!! Naturally, I'm sometimes innundated with knocks on the door from kids with their BMX bikes (they had to drag them down the street!!) or their "hammered" MTB's!!! Getting to be that time of year again!!!

I'm probably depriving some of the area shops of business (nearest one is about 10 miles away) but the kids always seem to show up on Saturday evening after 6:00 or Sunday afternoon!!

Cheers,

Chuck Brooks
