Nukeproof Horizon Top Headset CupThe Horizon Top Headset Cup from Nukeproof comes from a new range that uses titanium coated race bearings with stainless steel balls. The titanium coating is applied using “Physical Vapour Deposition” which means that the material is vapourised in a vacuum environment and then deposited on the bearing races as a composition coating.This process allows the structure, density and stoichiometry of the coating to be controlled allowing the exact attributes in our design brief to be achieved. The coating is 0.000118” thick and has a molecular bond to the bearing races so it won’t wear off or corrode. The bearing is ABEC 5 certified which means that it has passed tests which include ID and OD tolerance’s, roundness of ball, the trueness of faces & surfaces as well as noise testing at high RPM making it the perfect bearing for use in a headset.These bearings have been designed for use in the harshest weathers and have gone through various tests by the Nukeproof team during development so they are 100% confident in their performance. To back this up Nukeproof are offering a 5-year warranty so you can rest easy knowing your purchase will be a good investment.Click here to view and download our Nukeproof Headset Technical ManualFeatures: Headset Type: Specific Top Cup Bearings: Replaceable, angular contact type Graphics: Laser-etched Finish: Hard Anodised Options: Internal and external Includes: Top cap and bolt supplied Model Headtube Internal Diameter Steerer Black EX34-28.6 - T1 1.1/8" Top Cap Included 34mm 1 1/8" Black ZS44-28.6 - T2 1.1/8" Top Cap Included 44mm 1 1/8" Black ZS49-28.6 - T3 1.1/8" Top Cap Included 49mm 1 1/8" Buy Nukeproof Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
Nukeproof Horizon Bottom Headset CupNukeproof's headsets feature titanium-coated race bearings with stainless steel balls.

Hope Head Doctor Headset AdjustersIf you want your regular headset tightening and adjustments to be a thing of the past, then the Head Doctor is for you. Hope has made it from anodised aluminium with laser-etched graphics for a premium look. Its expander bung replaces the traditional "star nut" design for a safer hold with more even clamping force inside your fork’s steerer tube.When you install it, two aluminium wedges simply pull together and expand inside any 1.1/8 steerer giving you a solid thread to pull the stem down. Sounds simple? It is.Features: Material: Laser etched, anodised 2014 T6 Aluminium Expandable to 26.6mm Designed to fit 1 1/8" Aluminium steerer tubes only Compatible with most brands of 1.1/8" headsets Laser-etched top cap Even loading in steerer due to full diameter expander wedge Replaces "star nut" design Not suitable for Carbon or Steel steerer tubes Weight: 29gPlease Note: Before use, take apart and grease all of the internal threads and surfaces that have to slide against one another (NOT the surface that will touch the inside of the steerer), failure to do this will make it feel tight before it is. This makes it tempting to tighten even more and as this is a lightweight alloy bolt, it will snap if over tightened. Grease threads and surfaces and it will be fine.Buy Hope Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
