    It is possible to jury rig a headset installation... I did it for my surly. Pain in the neck, is all I can say.

    I know my kinetic trainer was taken apart to try to do it - and a jack from one of the cars as well. I can't remember what worked in the end, but it went in no problem. I have another headset to install in the frame I'm building up now, so I wish I did remember!

    And I'm always collecting parts for theoretical bikes...

    Well here's an update on this one - I spoke to one of the Spot reps at a bike show on Saturday and he said they have a few frames left and he could hook me up with a great discount. He also suggested a guy at one of the shops around here who could help me choose components/build the bike for less than it would've cost me new last year...woohoo!

    Now I'm just going to wait until next week when I can sit (not really ride) on the belt-driven one they have in the store to do a final size check for the frame
