CR's,

I need a Magistroni headset fork crown race. The one I have doesn't match perfectly, and when I ride, the headset binds. (Also, the crown race cup sticks out slightly out of the lower cup, indicating they weren't meant for each other.)

This is the headset that has 10-sided flats on both the upper cup (threaded) and the lower cup (pressed into frame). If somebody has a crown race for this for sale, or has one they can lend me, so I can machine a copy, I'd appreciate it. Alternatively, I'd be interested in buying a complete headset.

Thank you.
