When bearings are not pressed securely into a cup they shift and move, rapidly losing preload. As preload drops, the bearings are more susceptible to creaking, damage, and failure. Chris King's patented GripLock bearing cap is tried and tested and is a patented design that preloads the headset independently of clamping onto the steerer. The GripLock design ensures that the Chris King DropSet 4 retains preload far better than the competition and is impervious to the ill effects of load spikes from large hits and heavy braking. This means smoother steering, no more creaking, and a longer-lasting headset.Buy Chris King Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

The Compressport Women's Performance Short Sleeve T-Shirt combines functionality with lightness, ready to take on the intensity of training with the same enthusiasm as the rigours of racing. Specifically designed for extreme comfort and softness, it is one of those shirts you barely feel you're wearing with microfibre fabric and a seamless design ensure any chafing, irritation or sporty odours are kept at bay. Fine-woven aeration lines are integrated down the front, back and along the sleeve for optimal ventilation while sweat and moisture are quickly wicked away to keep you dry and irritation-free even during the most intense workouts. Cut in a regular fit that offers an unrestrictive cut and a round neckline that sits flat against your skin alongside an updated sleeve design to free up the shoulder area for a total range of movement. The technical material is woven from dyed fibres for improved durability and an asymmetrical striped pattern on the sleeve and hip adds a touch of class to your performance.
Created using a technical, high-performance superposition of merino wool and polyamide, the new long-sleeved Trail Winter Postural Top will keep you training and racing through the coldest months. Our Body-Science team spent many hours in the lab developing extremely precise, gender-specific body mapping. The result is the most precise thermoregulating qualities our brand has ever seen: in areas that cool quickly and require the most warmth, the soft wool is placed on the inside against the skin, with the polyamide as the outer fabric. In less sensitive areas, the material layering is reversed so you don’t overheat as you push the pace. Laser-cut perforations, ventilation panels and a 3/4 zip take care of breathability and moisture management, while the studied sleeve design frees up the shoulder for complete range of motion. The higher neck adds comfort and protection, as do the convenient thumbhole loops on the sleeves. Last but not least, our signature Spin Control technology helps maintain correct posture. An asymmetrical striped print and our classic racing logo complete the high performance design. Pull on your trail shirt, shrug off the winter excuses.
