YUNIPER Ultralight headset with aluminum bearing shells | Drop-In Tapered S.H.I.S. IS41.8/28.6 | IS51.8/40 1 1/8" - 1 1/2" | orange
With the Yuniper Ultralight headset, you not only lighten your bike, but also give it an individual touch. Thanks to the aluminium bearing shells, this version saves a further 15 grams of weight compared to the standard Ultralight version. The carefully milled aluminium parts fit very precisely and allow easy adjustment of the bearing clearance. Special attention was also paid to the ball bearings. A burnished finish on the balls prevents the formation of corrosion and thus improves the ease of movement and extends the service life. In addition, special seals and a moisture-repellent grease ensure that water and dirt cannot penetrate in the first place. Thanks to the different anodized colors, you can perfectly match the headset to your bike. Another visual highlight is the glossy 3K carbon Ahead cap including black aluminium bolt included in the scope of delivery.
