Chris King DropSet 5 Headset - 1-1/8" 42/52mm 45 Deg Matte Black. The Dropset 5 integrated headset features the patented GripLock bearing cap which preloads the headset independently of clamping onto the steerer so it 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.
