💡 How does preload adjustment affect steering precision on tapered headsets? Snugging the cap bolt aligns the internal races while eliminating lateral freeplay. This calibration stops wandering handlebars without causing drag. - Clamping the steerer tube evenly distributes force across the pinch faces - Polishing the cup edges prevents microfriction during sharp leaning angles - Rotating the axle assembly checks for hidden scoring under pressure
