🔧 Cane Creek 40-Series Traditional 44 Race Bottom Headset - Original Equipment (OE) Review

If your bike has a straight steerer and fork and you need modern tapered forks. That fixes it! I have a huge Claw 3 and wanted the modern forks to work.

Worked great on my 2008 Giant Trance X2. I had to trim a few millimeters with a dremel to get it to sit flush with the steering column. Finally I can mount a tapered fork on my bike. However, be aware that this headset will increase the length of your head tube and be sure to double measure the stem on the new fork.

If you have a 1/8th steerer and want to use a tapered fork, this is your go-to choice. Simple, uncomplicated and inexpensive. I'll add that if you're like me you'll need to trim away about 1-2mm to get the headset to sit flush with the head tube. Not so hot what's up. Measure before purchasing to ensure fit.

If your headset fits a standard 1 1/8" headset and has bottom brackets, you can install a 1 1/8-1 1/" 2" tapered headset . hose without any problems. Fits well, works well. My rig, a 2014 Giant Talon, now solo air in the Rockshox sector, gold. Thanks to this lower bearing and the shell, a very good fit is possible compared to the stem.

Product and shipping were great but it didn't fit my frame. Don't think twice and measure the inner diameter of the steerer tube as there are many different versions. Not only does this headset not fit, my tapered fork that I found doesn't work in any way unless I weld a new one. steering tube available. I ended up ordering another 1-1/8" straight fork. Measure twice, order once!

I was looking to install a tapered fork with a 44mm zero stack integrated headset on my Dirtjumper and this part worked for me. The top of the headset does not need to be replaced, which saves money. The part presses into the lower end of the steerer tube and the new 1 1/2" bearing fits in without a press fit. While headset standards can be confusing, if you have a 44mm ID head tube, you can easily fit in with this part attach conical tube to your existing bike, I recommend it.
