Bontrager Steering Lock Headset
Best stability upgrade for commuters tired of flopping handlebars.
This component solves the common annoyance of a wandering front wheel when a bike is parked. By locking the steering in place, it keeps the front end stable and secure, making it much easier to lean the bike against walls or racks without the wheel flopping over.
