  • Accepts any standard preload bolt and top cap (sold separately)

Compatibility & fit

Fits 1-1/8in carbon steerer tubes. Torque the expansion bolt to 6Nm — overtightening can crack a carbon steerer.

Cane Creek covers this as a small part/accessory: 1 year against defects in materials and workmanship, not everyday wear or incorrect installation. For warranty support, return the product to Tune Cycles and we'll manage the claim with Cane Creek's Australian distributor. This is in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law — keep your proof of purchase.
