If you've got an old school 1.5" headtube that takes external traditional cup headset but you want to run a tapered steerer then this is the headset for you.

Top and bottom cups fit a 1.5" compatible head/steerer tube with a 49mm internal diameter

This enables them to use bigger bearings top and bottom

The reduction to cater for the tapered steerer comes in the form of the top race

Headset has signs of use, plenty of marks from removal, these will not be visible once fitted

Few marks around the edge of the top cup, see pics

Couple of cable wear marks to bottom cup, again pictured.

Bearings still feel nice and not even fully worn in yet.

Overall will look nice when fitted and should last for many years to come

Please make sure your frames headtube has a 49mm internal diameter
