Cane Creek IS Headset
Product Description“IS” = “integrated system.” The IS design uses no cups. IS bearings rest inside the head tube of the bike’s frame, which has been specifically designed to cradle the bearings and manufactured to the Cane Creek IS worldwide standard. Other integrated designs do exist on the market, so contact Cane Creek with any compatibility questions. The performance of this headset relies on quality manufacturing of the frame/bicycle maker. Like the ZeroStack design, the IS headset cannot be retrofitted to an existing bike with traditional headset cups.
