Headset
In 2020, the headset was serviced minimally and without much knowledge by me. After unmounting the headset, I cleaned all little balls (lost one!) and mounted back with new grease.
In 2023, the up cup made of plastic started to display a crack that became bigger and bigger. I decided to have done by a professional who changed the full headset, for 19 euros material and 30 for man hour. Feels much more solid, all metallic cups and new steering feeling.
Front 105 caliper
Since the rear 105 brought satisfaction, I invested for its complement for the front brake. Bye bye Sora, you served me well.
