Its probably 2-3mm. Enough that its visible. I think either they sent me the wrong bearings or there is an issue with the headtube. I'm worried its the latter since visually the bearings look the same as what has been previously posted.
I went ahead and built the bike up anyway and have been pleasantly surprised by how well it rides. Its pretty snappy and handles well. A couple issues ive encountered:
- the headset
- it seems like the spacing is off on the rear. There is 3-4mm more clearance on the drive side than non driveside. When L45er measured the tire clearance earlier that seemed to be the case on their bike too. Ive tried a few different wheels and they all line up the same.
- the brake mounts were painted over
- the compression plug has some sharp edges that hang over the steerer
Overall, I'm happy with what I got for $700. If they could fix these few issues it'd be a homerun.
