This is the Chris King GripNut headset for threaded 1-1/8 inch steerers in Sotto Voce black, where the logo work stays quiet. The collet locking system clamps the adjustment in place so the headset holds its setting without constant wrenching.
It restores classic threaded forks on touring rigs, randonneuse builds, and steel road frames with bearings that outlast the paint — set the preload once and ride, with a ten-year warranty behind it.
Chris King Precision Components has machined bicycle components in Portland, Oregon since 1976, making its own bearings from domestic-mill materials and anodizing parts in-house.
