Chris King Headset Spacer Kit

These spacers are designed specifically for 1-1/8-inch steerer tubes, which is the standard size for most modern mountain and road bikes. If you are unsure of your fork's size, check your bike's specifications or measure the diameter of the steerer tube directly.

While spacers seem simple, they need to be perfectly flat and parallel to ensure even pressure on your headset bearings. Chris King machines these from solid bar-stock to prevent the uneven preload that can cause headset play or premature bearing wear.

The kit comes with a versatile mix of sizes to help you dial in your handlebar height: one 3mm spacer, two 6mm spacers, and two 12mm spacers.

Yes, you can mix and match, but keep in mind that the finish and diameter tolerances may vary between brands. Using a full set of Chris King spacers ensures a consistent look and a uniform fit across your entire stack.

Yes, these aluminum spacers are safe to use with carbon fiber steerer tubes. Just ensure your stem is properly tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications to avoid crushing the carbon.
