Precision, quality, value: the Hellbender 70 ZS Headset by Cane Creek


The Cane Creek Hellbender 70 headset, made from 6061T-6 aluminium and anodized black, bridges the gap between the 40 and 110 headset series. It has the design elements, seals and bearings that distinguish the 110 headset, but is priced closer to the 40 series. Top and double lower bearing seals provide perfect protection against dust, mud and other contaminants. The Cane Creek Hellbender stainless steel bearing is specifically designed for use in harsh conditions. Thus, the Hellbender 70 headset affords longevity and reliability that was previously only found in the 110 series.

Standardized Headset Identification System (S.H.I.S.):

In order to clarify and bring uniformity to a sea of headset standards, manufacturers Acros, Cane Creek, Hope, Race Face, Reset Racing and Ritchey have agreed upon using a shared nomenclature, which will likely include more participating companies in the future. This system takes into account a combination of frame and fork dimensions. Both the top and bottom parts of the headset are marked by two alphanumeric identifiers. The first identifier indicates the type of headset (External Cup, Zero Stack, Integrated) and head tube diameter. The second identifier - separated from the first by a backslash - indicates the diameter of the steerer tube. When referring to a complete headset, the specifications of both top and bottom parts must be combined.

Nomenclature:

EC:
Bearings contained within headset cups that are located outside of the frame (External Cup)
ZS:
Bearings contained within pressed-in headset cups where the cup and bearings rest inside the frame (Zero Stack)
IS:
Bearings that fit directly into a bonded or machined interface that is integrated into the frame (Integrated)

Ausgezeichnete Qualität für den Dauereinsatz. Fahre alle 4 Jahreszeiten durch, bei jeder Witterung. Habe meinen ausgeleierten 40er Steuersatz damit ersetzt.

Das Headset habe ich in ein Rocky Mountain Instinct mit Jahrgang 2019 eingebaut, als Ersatz für ein FSA Headset für das ich kein Crown Race gefunden habe.
Das Hellbender Headset hat meiner Meinung ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis und funktioniert bis dato ohne irgendwelche Probleme. In der Vergangenheit hatte ich bei den 40er Headset von cane creek immer mal Probleme mit den unteren Lager (verrostet). Das sollte hier nicht passieren!
