Chris King Inset i4 Silver 1.5"/49mm Frame suit 1-1/8" fork steerer GripLock
This Chris King® threadless headset features a bearing cap design called GripLock™. GripLock™ is a multi-piece bearing cap that utilizes a split ring that improves steerer tube interface.
InSet™ Model 4 with GripLock™ bearing cap is intended for 1 1-8” steerer dual crown forks, fits bikes from a number of manufacturers and is for long travel applications. As long as your bike doesn’t require an integrated headset this Inset™ headset will perform beautifully on your bike.
This Chris King® Inset™ headset is a low-stack threadless headset. Like other Chris King® headsets, it features user-serviceable stainless steel bearings. Chris King’s bearings are legendary because their design gives you years of trouble free performance with only routine maintenance.
It is absolutely essential that proper reaming and facing of your bike’s head tube be performed by a qualified mechanic during installation of this Inset™ headset. Also, please be aware that modifying a frame to make the Inset™ fit is not a proper method of installation. The proper installation of this headset is so important that you are encouraged to choose another headset if you are not able to have this Inset™ headset properly installed. We highly recommend that you carefully check your bike's specifications before ordering this headset and contact your bike manufacturer if necessary. Please note that we are unable to accept for return, exchange, or credit any headset that has been installed or has been attempted to be installed. This insures that all of our customers receive only pristine, brand new components. Thank you for your understanding.

Integrated headsets pose a unique challenge in that the bearings are not pressed into a cup and sit loosely in the frame. When bearings are not pressed securely into a cup they shift and move, rapidly losing preload. As preload drops, the bearings are more susceptible to creaking, damage, and failure.
Enter the patented GripLock bearing cap. The GripLock preloads the headset independently of clamping onto the steerer, so it retains preload far better than the competition and is impervious to the ill effects of load spikes from large hits and heavy braking. This means smoother steering, no more creaking, and a longer lasting headset.
GripLock design also takes the guesswork out of preloading a headset, because the bearing preload force is independent of the clamping force. Chris King headsets can be preloaded to a torque spec.
