Cane Creek: "Tank" headsets for the rough stuff

In addition to fine, lightweight parts, CaneCreek also has a growing range of parts for the rough stuff. Like the "Tank" headset. Their bearing shells are made of nickel-plated steel and have the largest possible offset that fits into a frame without the need for time-consuming re-milling of the head tube. This and the robust industrial bearings should ensure a long, play-free life for the "Tanks".

CaneCreek will be presenting three versions of the headset for rough terrain: In addition to the relatively light "Tank Race", there is the "Tank II" and, as the crowning glory, a model for downhillers, the most massive part of this series. For the Interbike in Las Vegas, the CaneCreek managers also held out the prospect of a shock absorber for use on freeride bikes.
