2018 Scalpel SE 2
Down Tube Clearance , Fox Performance 34 Fork
Required Lower Headset Cup & Crown Race
• 2018 Scalpel SE 2 sizes S, L and XL with the Fox Performance
34 fork require lower headset cup KP213/BLK and
crown race K35108. These parts are not required on M size
frames.
• KP213/BLK is a 12mm height cup which provides the additional
and necessary down tube clearance between the Fox
Performance 34 fork adjusters and the down tube.
Additional clearance is needed on S, L and XL frame sizes to
prevent the fork adjusters from striking the frame when the
handlebars are turned.
• If 2018 Scalpel SE 2 sizes, S, L, and XL does not have the
KP213/BLK lower cup and K35108 crown race installed already,
the parts must be installed by a Cannondale Dealer according
to the service instructions.
• At this time, KP213/BLK and K35108 are only indicated for use
with 2018 Scalpel SE 2 sizes S, L, and XL and the
Fox Performance 34 fork. These parts should not be used on
other 2018 models.
Installation
• To install these parts, the SI bearing should be removed from
the lower head tube. It is to be re-used.
The lower bearing must be pressed into the KP213/BLK cup
first. Be sure to apply light grease to the bearing and the
cup when using (Park Tool: HHP-2). Use the correct headset
adapters when pressing the cup/bearing combination into the
head tube.
The existing 4mm crown race must be removed from the fork
using (Park Tool:CRP-2) and crown race K35108 installed using
(Park Tool: CRS-15.2) in its place.
• If it is necessary to change the lower bearing later, the
KP213/BLK cup and bearing combination must be driven out
of the head tube together. Use a wooden dowel and mallet.
Locate the dowel inside the head tube on the upper edge
of the cup and drive out around the cup evenly. The bearing
can then be extracted from the cup and replaced and the
combination re-installed.
