A lightweight replacement preload assembly for a Cane Creek Hellbender 70 Lite headset – an aluminium star nut with nickel-plated flanges, at less than half the weight of a conventional steel preload assembly.

Compatibility & fit

Fits all 1-1/8in aluminium and steel steer tubes, adjusted with a T25 Torx key. For a carbon steerer, pair it with Cane Creek's Ancora compression plug (sold separately) rather than pressing the star nut directly into carbon.
