I am about to fit the front forks back into the frame tube.
The inverted upper cone (99096106), which sits above the ball race and below a new chrome protection cap, seems an extremely tight fit inside the frame tube. It will not just push in.
Is this correct, and if so, what is the best way of drawing the forks up inside the frame tube?
Should I thoroughly clean the inside of the frame tube first with emery paper or similar perhaps?
