The 40-Series from Cane Creek is the workhorse of their headset line-up, representing a balance of performance, durability, and value. This series incorporates all the features necessary for a robust, lightweight, and long-lasting headset.

The integrated bearings of the 40-Series fit directly into compatible head tubes without the need for a bearing press. The sealed black oxide bearings provide reliable performance, while the Interlok spacer compatibility allows for easy adjustment and customization.

One of the key features of the 40-Series is the carbon-friendly compression ring, which is captured in the top cover, keeping shims in place. This design ensures a secure and stable interface between the headset and the bicycle's frame.

The 40-Series is compatible with tapered 1-1/8 to 1-1/2 steerer tubes, as well as straight 1-1/8 steerers with the use of a conversion crown race (sold separately). This versatility allows the headset to be used with a wide range of bicycle frame types and fork configurations.
