Got a frame with a 1.5 inch head tube but a 1 1/8 inch fork? Hope's Step Down headset bridges the gap, and this low stack version keeps the front end as low as possible.

Highlights

  • Runs a 1 1/8" steerer in a 1.5" head tube
  • Low stack design keeps the front end low
  • Replaceable stainless steel bearings
  • Split crown race for easy fitting

Hope quality throughout

Like Hope's other headsets it uses custom stainless steel bearings and aluminium cups and races machined in Barnoldswick, UK. Sealing comes from an adjustable taper ring cover and integrated rubber seal, and the stainless bearings carry their own seals too.
