List Price: Our Price: $38.00 About Headset UppersA bike headset is part of the bike steering components that serves as the point of rotation between the head tube of the bicycle frame and bicycle fork. It allows the bike’s handlebars to rotate smoothly and turn the fork with ease. Needless to say, without the headset, steering the bike will be a very difficult task. Headsets are actually a set of smaller components. It consists of two parts: a top cap, which is attached onto the upper portion of the head tube, and the bottom cap, which is placed at the bottom of the head tube. Inside these caps are small, smooth and tough bearings, usually ball bearings. These bearings are what provides the rolling surface for the headset. This rolling action reduces the frictional contact between the steerer tube and the bearing cup. There are many types of headsets based on design. These are threaded headsets, threadless headsets, integrated headsets, and tapered headsets.
The top cap is also known as headset upper and the bottom caps as headset lowers. When it comes to headset uppers, one particular brand that many experts recommend is Cane Creek.
