Subject: [CR] headset pitting


hi all,

so, i just got a (slightly off-topic) headset from ebay, and on receiving it discovered that the head tube race is slightly pitted (probably a dozen light pits each about a millimeter high). otherwise it's in pretty good shape... do people think this is a big deal? if i run a ballpoint pen along the race it just barely finds the pits. i do plan to ride the bike i put it on =)

alternately, does anyone have a c-record headtube race they can sell me? =)

thanks,
