    Hi, I have an old bike that has a standard headset. Caged bearings. I noticed that there's some back and forth play in the top dust cap when I lift the bike by the frame.

    Hi all, Nerd question here. Building an sworks frame and it comes with a new kind of steerer tube spacer that I haven't seen before that integrates the headset cap into the spacer.

    I recently got this fork which came with a converter(?). This is a stock fork from a Giant Talon. Can you remove that part so that it could be installed to a new headset? or do you need the existing headset from the previous bike to make the fork work?

    Hello all, Which size (diameter) is the head tube on 2010-2011 Cobias? I have seen where Cane Creek makes a headset for 44mm ID tubes that will allow the use of a tapered fork. Will this work with the Cobia?

    I have had the Cane Creek 110 IS on my Ibis Mojo for a year now, and it has been abused through mud, snow and rain, and has been subjected to constant rocky and bone jarring conditions. It has worked so well that I have pretty much forgotten that it was even on the bike. It has remained smooth...
