Nice headset press. Looks like mine. We frequent the same hardware store.
Who made the segmented fork?
If you don’t have a vintage GT, there’s a bike missing from you collection.

Fork from Edsen. It’s a beauty but came with a thick clear coat covering everything. I couldn’t even come close to fitting a headset spacer into the steerer. After faffing about with solvent and sandpaper for a bit I wound up just torching it off. Now I’m trying this metallic flake in carnauba wax as a finish. I need to buff it a little more but I think it will look nice.

I see old GT, I have to upvote. It looks like an early 90s steel frame but the made in Taiwan means it must be around mid 90s? Correct me if I’m wrong; I still haven’t quite figured out the dates (and serials!). This has got to be one of the biggest mtb sizing in 90s gt too. Nice nice!! Nothing better than an old GT. Especially their candy colors. Edit, and Oh, what does FEF mean?
