The best head for this price, I bought it for quite a lot of bikes and I am more satisfied with the quality than with FSA for this price

I changed to a wreath type, so far it works ok, runs smoothly, I have nothing to complain about.

Great. But I'd rather it be without the inscriptions.

The headset is fine, but I was worried that its lower part would not seal against dust or dirt. That's why I put a reduction ring there, which is lined with rubber around the perimeter and thus does not leave such a gap against the frame. (Cane Creek 110 52/30 mm)

Hello. Is this headset suitable for the DARTMOOR Hornet frame, or is this one better?: https://www.mtbiker.sk/shop/komponenty/hlavove-zlozenia/integrovane/force-taper-hlavove-zlozenie-1-18-1-12-36-al-cierna.html

SK Dobry den,

obe hlavove zlozenia by mali sadnut, Hornet r. 2014-2022 vyuzival hlavko typu IS42/52, toto konkretne hlavko pod kotrym sa pytate je naviac vybavene aj redukciou na moznost pouzitia vidlice s rovnym 1 1/8" krkom.

Hello, I can't decide on a headset. I bought a frameset https://www.specialized.com/sk/sk/enduro-coil-296fattie/p/133842?color=240153-133842 but I have no idea what will fit there. Can you help me choose? Thank you

SK Dobry den,

podla specifikacie Specialized by malo sadnut hlavko so specifikaciou IS42/28.6 | IS52/40.

T.j. spodne lozisko napr.: https://www.mtbiker.sk/shop/komponenty/hlavove-zlozenia/integrovane/wolf-tooth-performance-lower-is52-40-hlavove-zlozenie-integrovane-p137263.html
Problem je s vrchnym loziskom, resp. atypickou krytkou - vyrabal ju pre Specialized vyrobca FSA. Mozete skusit pripadne kontaktovat predajcu Vasho ramu, pokial ste vrchnu krytku nedostali k ramu.

Caveees, I need advice on the composition of the banks from Alza, I'm solving the Sava Carbon 3.2 headset, the dimensions of the bearings should be
28.6X41.8
52 X 30 below was a wreath
The frame is tapered, there was a classic fork with a straight neck inside.


Will this composition be ok for that? Or can you advise? Diiiik

SK Ahoj,

ospravedlnujeme sa za neskorsiu odpoved.

Pokial sa jedna o ram disponujuci hlavovou trubkou urcenou pre integrovane hlavove zlozenia, t.j. standard IS (lozisko sa len "vklada" priamo do ramu, nelisuju sa don ziadne misky), tak hlavko bude sediet - pozor vsak na tie priemery, zial nepodarilo sa mi na strankach Savy najst presnu specifikaciu. Lozisko musi sadnut do ramu naozaj presne, t.j. je potrebne poznat ci sa jedna naozaj o priemer 41.8 mm alebo 42.0 mm apod. Mas k dispozicii prip. povodne hlavove zlozenie? Rozmer loziska je vacsinou vyrazeny priamo na jeho bocnej stene, prip. na tesneni.. Alebo mozes skusit kontaktovat predajcu ramu, potrebnu specifikaciu by ti mali byt schopny dolozit. Drzim palce!

V pripade akychkolvek dalsich otazok nas nevahaj kedykolvek kontaktovat.

SK No áno ja som sa to snažil zistiť , rozmery na starých ložiskách neboli vyrazene včera som tam dal ten MaX1 tak sadlo to ale netuším že či to sedí presne malo by to mať vôľu keď je zle ?
Alebo mám pojazdiť na tom pár km a rozobrať a pozrieť či sa niečo nederie ne ?

SK Jo, zaklad je, ze lozisko musi sadnut uplne presne, akakolvek vola je nepripustna - urcite by ju malo byt vsak po zalozeni nespravneho loziska citit.
Istotou je pripadne premarat povodne lozisko, prip. ho samozrejme priamo porovnat s novym kusom

Hello, I bought a Pells frameset and the description for the headset says this: "Headset: integrated tapered 1 1/8-1.5", bearings 41.8/52 mm". I just want to make sure this headset will fit? Thanks. Peter

SK Dobry den,

skuste pre istotu este premeriat vnutorny priemer hlavovej trubky hore/dole - niekedy sa v desatinach milimetra hlavove trubky lisia a loziska nemusia sadnut presne. Toto konkretne hlavko vyzaduje hlavove trubky s priemerom 42/52.2 mm.

SK Dobry den,

rozmerovo (priemerovo) hlavko bude sediet, odlisna je akurat vyska spodneho loziska - je o 1 mm vyssie ako v tom Acros hlavku, medzi vidlicou a ramom tak moze byt viditelna teoreticky mala medzera, uhly skosenia (45 stupnov) sedia.
