We inherited a 2011-ish Trek Cobia which eldest uses to muck around on. He's been complaining about the steering so pulled the fork off to have a look. When we did, ball bearings and plastic discs/washers went everywhere.
1. WTF kind of headset is the one in the picture? And can I just replace it with a 'normal' headset as long as I get the diameter correct? And what would the plastic discs be for?
2. It's got on old recon silver fork on it which appears to be missing a crown race, however surely there's no way he could have rode it for so long with it being missing? Is there some kind of witchcraft associated with the weird headset?
