Chris King InSet 2 Headset Info
The Chris King InSet 2 Headset brings legendary build quality and smooth performance to lower-profile, modern bike frames. Designed for bikes with tapered 1⅛″-to-1½″ steerers and ZS44/ZS56 headtube seats, it blends precision-engineering with low-stack design for a refined cockpit setup.
Crafted in Portland, Oregon, every InSet 2 uses in-house, heat-treated cartridge bearings and surgical-grade steel races that improve with age. The patented GripLock® compression system ensures dependable adjustment independent of stem clamp tightness.
