The Importance of Facing

  There is a great deal of importance when it comes to facing your new frame, fork, headset, and bottom bracket.  This is something you probably want you're local bicycle shop to do for you because this process requires extremely expensive milling tools that costs several hundreds of dollars to perform.  So why is this important?  It's so you don't wreck or damage or eat shit on your new ride. Haha.  Was facing does is flattens out any uneven surfaces that you may not notice with you eye, but you may feel the difference when you're riding.  It allows for better alignment and for bearings to rotate more smoothly.
  So if you just bought a new sought-after Concept, Vivalo, 3Rensho, etc...go straight to your local bike shop and get your frame and parts faced.  Ride Safe.
