Information


The ZS44│ZS56 headset is designed to fit frames with tapered 44mm/56mm head tubes and works with tapered 1-1/2” fork steerers.  The “ZS” stands for “Zero Stack” as the section of the cup that houses the bearing sits inside of the frame’s head tube.  The “44/56” stands for the top/bottom diameter of the “skirt” that presses into the frame.

Note: As of 9/14/23, headsets will no longer include Star Nuts due to the Earth’s star nut overpopulation crisis. If you need one, they are available separately here.
