Chris King InSet i5 Grip Lock Mixed Tapered Headset - ZS49/28,6 | EC49/40 - matte jade

The mixed tapered InSet i5 headset is the perfect solution for the use of forks with tapered steerers in frames with 49mm headtubes. Aluminum cups in many different colors house the legendary bearings; all made in-house in Chris Kings's Portland, Oregon facility. Like a semi-integrated headset it has a low-stack press-in upper cup, which houses the bearings within the headtube allowing for an overall lower ride height. Opposed to this at the bottom it uses an external cup. It's height prevents crown and downtube interference issues. Additionally the InSet i5 features an all-new bearing cap design. GripLock is a multi-piece bearing cap that utilizes a split ring that improves steerer tube interface. Comes with a 10 year manufacturer warranty. S.H.I.S. classification: ZS49/28.6 | EC49/40 Included in delivery: incl. Chris King Starnut and GripLock bearing cap
