I have a customers carbon bike frame which has an issue where the headset, which has an interference fit aluminium cup that presses into the frame, has become loose due to the carbon frame having worn giving about 1 mm of movement in the cup.

I plan to replace the cup with a type that has a removable bearing from the cup, thus allowing me to bond the cup into the frame to eleviate the movement in the headset.

So finally the question!

What I need to know is what product you would recommend to bond an aluminium cup into a carbon fibre frame that would take the knocks that a mountain bike will endure and fill the small voids that now exist between frame and cup?

Many thanks for your help.

Simon.
