Every Chris King headset is built with our heat-treated bearings, and surgical-grade steel races machined simultaneously to ensure they are perfectly matched. As Chris King bearing tracks age and burnish, they actually get smoother, and all headsets are fully serviceable for years upon years of demanding riding.

Built for the next generation of tapered road forks the Chris King InSet 8 is built to fit contemporary road and cross bikes that utilize 1-1/8 to 1-1/4tapered steerer tubes and a 44mm headtube. Our InSet 8 combines our exclusive Chris King built bearings and our GripLock retention system for unequalled riding quality.
