The SteelSet, available only in 1-1/8", is designed as a complementary frame component with stainless steel upper and lower bearing cups pressing a full inch into the headtube of the frame. That’s almost three times as much contact area than standard headset cups. This extra deep press creates a frame and headset union that is tough to beat.
We also fabricate the bearing cap from stainless steel to better handle the higher lateral loads applied by dual crown and long-travel single crown forks. An aluminum stem cap, stainless steel bolt and our proprietary star nut carry out pre-load adjustment.
