Hi

Apologises at first for my idiot question, i received a GP headset bush kit the other day and am now ready to fit it, but i found 4 white round shaped bushes in the kit, i can see that two have raised groove that slide into the handle and then the rod and roll pin will secure it, then i find i have 2 other hat looking bushes, having a mind melt and cant think where they go, they slightly larger diameter than the tube, hole in middle and have a slight lip to give like a top hat look on them. :oops: these must be different from the standard set up and not in Stickeys book either

Sorry if my description is not the best, will take a photo if need be.

Also can i fit the gear change without the vibration ring to it?

The top hat bushes go into the steel ends of the headset and normally need tapping in although some are machined oversize so need fettleing.
