Wolf Tooth Performance Headset

This is a ZS56 headset, meaning it is designed for frames with a 56mm head tube inner diameter. It is specifically intended for bikes using a 1.5-inch tapered steerer tube, so ensure your frame and fork match these dimensions before purchasing.

Black oxide steel bearings are chosen for their high load capacity and durability. They are engineered to handle the stress of aggressive riding while resisting corrosion better than standard steel bearings, making them a reliable choice for long-term performance.

The custom-molded dual-lip seal on the crown race acts as a barrier against dirt, mud, and water. By preventing contaminants from reaching the bearings, it significantly extends the service life of the headset and keeps your steering feeling smooth.

Yes, this is a complete lower headset assembly, including the cup, the black oxide cartridge bearing, and the custom-molded dual-lip crown race. It is designed as a straightforward, drop-in solution for your front end.

This unit weighs 58 grams. It is built from aircraft-grade aluminum to balance structural integrity with weight savings, ensuring it remains robust without adding unnecessary bulk to your bike.
