Hope Pick n Mix Headset 3T INTEGRAT IS41 Black

As you might have worked out by now, headsets are a bit of a minefield! Integrated, integral, reducers, dimensions and types all contribute to confusing the situation. Don’t panic! We have now made top and bottom cups available separately allowing our headsets to fit almost any frame and fork combination. Hopefully this brochure will help you through choosing the right headset for your bike. A couple of things to remember though - Hope don’t necessarily do a headset to fit your bike! They have 18 ‘Pick n Mix’ options. There are other styles, types and fittings out there. The first thing to remember is that you need accurate dimensions if you are at all unsure of what type you need. The second point to remember is that unfortunately there is no ‘standard headset’ - OK, there’s the dimension 1 1/8”, which covers the majority of headsets now, but as far as Integral, integrated etc... These are simply terms used by different manufacturers to determine what they consider that style to be. Measure, check and measure again! One thing that is common throughout Hope’s range of headsets is the quality of materials used to manufacture them. Just think about the quality of each and every custom made stainless steel bearings and the time taken to hand assemble all of them when it’s on its way to you.
