# Chris King DropSet 2 Headset - 1-1/8 - 1.5" 42/52mm 45 Deg Matte Black

The DropSet 2 Headset features the GripLock™ bearing cap that preloads the headset independently of clamping onto the steerer so it retains preload far better than other headset designs. The DropSet 2 is impervious to the ill effects of load spikes from large hits and heavy braking. This means smoother steering no more creaking and a longer lasting headset.-   Patented GripLock retention design for exclusively reliable headset adjustment
-   42mm 45x45 upper bearing
