I am a first time Cane Creek customer and ZS user.

The model is a 110 ZS 1.125".

The cups were pressed in by the frame builder. The bearings
were in the Cane Creek box along with the starnut, top cap and
other bits. The crown race was installed to the fork purchased from
the frame builder.

Now I am starting to assemble the new fork to the frame.

So here is my question:
Should the bearings just pop into cups with not much hand
effort (no press)? The bottom bearing will fall out with a little shaking.

Thanks for your time.
