InSet™ is the classic, unbeatable Chris King sealed bearing headset built into six configurations for contemporary bicycle headtube dimensions. As a low-stack style headset, the press-in cups and bearings are housed within the headtube allowing for an overall lower ride height. InSet compatibility can also conform to forks with tapered steerer tubes.

The NoThreadSet™ features aluminum cups, bearing cap, and stemcap built around our renowned stainless steel sealed bearings. Each NoThreadSet™ includes a stainless steel baseplate and our custom starnut with bolt.

2Nut is the preferred headset for anyone using a threaded fork and quill stem in combination with headset spacers and/or a cable hanger. It is a popular headset with cyclocrossers and randonneurs. The 2Nut features stainless steel sealed bearings housed in aluminum upper and lower cups. Adjusting nuts and lock nuts are also made of aluminum.

The headset that Chris King built its name on, the 2Nut is still the gold standard for 1-inch threaded headsets. Whether you're tuning up a classic frame or going full retro on a custom build, the durability, performance, and incredible adjustability of the 2Nut have kept it a crowd favorite for almost 35 years. The 2Nut turns on a pair of Chris King's silky smooth stainless-steel bearings, and the precision machined cups and locking nuts make adjustments stable and simple.

Got a threaded steerer without spacers or brake hangers? Chris King's GripNut Headset is the choice for you. Ideal for heavy touring and riding over rough terrain, the GripNut features an extra threaded collet that locks the steerer in place, offering incredible holding power and adjustability. It’s also a welcome solution for forks with damaged or undersized threads. The additional collet makes it easy to install a fork that's had its steerer tube cut too short.

Press Fit BBs will gives customers the same performance, serviceability, and dependability that they have come to expect from every Chris King product.

Chris King's one piece axles are quickly interchangeable allowing you to easily transfer your Chris King equipped wheels between bicycles.

Chris King's precision headset spacers are made to the same exacting standards as our headsets. Each spacer is lathe-cut from high-grade aluminum bar stock in a single operation ensuring exactness of size, concentricity, and parallel surfaces.

Designed for Chris King's NoThreadSet threadless system and available in 1” and 1 1/8”. Match your current headset color or mix it up for a custom look. What Chris King says about the Griplock system: "Our headsets feature an all-new bearing cap design. GripLock™ is a multi-piece bearing cap that utilizes a split ring that improves steerer tube interface."

Another excellent Chris King product. In their words: "To many, this is commonly called a crown race. We choose to call it a baseplate as ours is technically not a race. It is the foundation of the venerable Chris King Sealed Bearing headset and is designed as a low cost, sacrificial piece, easily replaced when worn or damaged upon removal."
