As you might have worked out by now, headsets are a bit of a minefield! Integrated, integral, reducers, dimensions and types all contribute to confusing the situation. Don`t panic! We have now made top and bottom cups available separately allowing our headsets to fit almost any frame and fork combination. A couple of things to remember though - we don`t necessarily do a headset to fit your bike! We have 4 `off the shelf` combinations and a further 18 `Pick n Mix` options. There are other styles, types and fittings out there. The first thing to remember is that you need accurate dimensions if you are at all unsure of what type you need. The second point to remember is that unfortunately there is no `standard` - OK, we have the dimension 1 1/8", which covers the majority of headsets now, but as far as Integral, integrated etc... these are simply terms used by different manufacturers to determine what they consider that style to be. Measure, check and measure again!. One thing that is common throughout our range is the quality of materials used to manufacture them, here in our Barnoldswick Factory, the quality of the custom made stainless steel bearings and the time taken to hand assemble each and every one before it leaves, on it`s way to you!. Available in black only. Hopefully this brochure will help you through choosing the right headset for your bike.
