Chris King does integration work

No company has held up the flag for the classic aheadset headset as consistently as Chris King. This summer, however, this is set to come to an end, at least in part: Chris King is launching its first integrated headset on the market.

For a long time, Chris King was vocal in his opposition to the new headset, in which the bearings are placed or pressed directly into the frame. With the new "Inset", however, Chris King is only at first glance being unfaithful to his principles. The new model is a so-called "press-fit" headset, in which classically constructed bearing shells are installed in an oversized head tube. Chris King has decided to offer the standard diameter of 44 millimeters for 1-1/8" head tubes. At the same time, there are two headset bearings for tapered 1-1/8" / 1.5" steerer tubes.

According to Chris King's announcement, the "Inset" will be available in all three versions and all King colors from next June.
