InSet 8 is built for the next generation of tapered road and cross forks that use a 1-1/8 to 1-1/4-inch steerer rather than 1.5 inch. Chris King's bearings are made in-house, with surgical-grade steel races machined simultaneously so they're perfectly matched; they burnish smoother with age and are fully serviceable for years of demanding riding.
