HEAR WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY
100% Lifetime Guarantee
We invented the modern headset in 1992 with the Aheadset and the 110 series is a continuation of that legacy of precision, craftsmanship and performance.
We know the 110 headsets are the best in the world, and we want to make sure that they have the best guarantee in the world.
Hellbender Bearings
The Hellbender bearings are built to live in the most extreme conditions, keeping you riding smoothly through rain, mud, grit or whatever the road and trail throws at you. Using Stainless Steel bearings and advanced sealing elements.
Interlok® Spacer Compatible
Our patented Interlok spacer design provides solid interface between the top cover and spacer stack, meaning they “nest” together and into the top of the bearing cover, which helps minimize shifting under load while riding; and shave 25% in weight off a standard alloy spacer stack. Spacers sold separately

Cane Creek Headsets
A Legacy of Innovation
In 1992, we brought the Aheadset®, the original threadless headset, to market – kicking off a major change in the way bicycle frames and forks would be developed going forward.
The original design of that revolutionary headset is still found in almost all bikes on the market today.
