	Headset (bicycle part) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The headset is the component on a bicycle which provides a rotatable interface between the bicycle fork and the bicycle frame itself.
		The cap is threaded onto the steerer during installation and is forced down onto the bearings in the upper cup, which also pulls the crown race on the fork into the bearings in the lower cup.
		Bicycle racers seeking the greatest amount of saddle-to-handlebar drop for better aerodynamics will often forgo spacers and cut the steerer tube down to match the headset bearing cup stack height in addition to the stem stack height.

	Publius & Co.: Victor builds a bike, Part One dot Five
		I'm using a threadless headset, which is supposed to be easier to setup and adjust than the old-fashioned threaded headset is to setup.
		No matter which type I was installing, though, the headset has more small parts than any other part of a bicycle--except for the chain, I guess, but I don't know anyone who takes apart and repairs/adjusts their chain.
		I'm fortunate I have one headset that seems to have been installed and adjusted properly: the one on the old frame.

	Sheldon Brown's Bicycle Glossary H
		This type of headset must be used with a special handlebar stem that clamps on to the outside of the steerer, either with one or more binder bolts, or other means.
		To adjust an "Aheadset"-type headset, the stem binder must be loosened, then the bolt that runs through the cap to the starnut is tightened, usually with a 5 mm Allen wrench.
		It is also particularly well suited to bicycles with smaller than usual drive wheels, because the high range(s) of the internal gear eliminate the need for unusually large chainwheels to compensate for the small wheels.

	Sheldon Brown's Bicycle Glossary St--Sz
		In the case of threadless headsets, the stack height also includes the height of the part of the handlebar stem that clamps to the steerer.
		The steerer, or "steering column" is the upper part of a front fork, to which the handlebar stem and the turning parts of the headset attach.
		The part that connects the handlebars to the steerer of the fork.

		Bicycle commuting reduces stress and lowers the risk of heart disease by combining a workout with a commute.
		Bicycles must be tied securely with user- provided cotton rope to the vertical hold-on bar at the rearmost side-facing seats.

	Dahon Folding Bicycle Forums > Oiling a squeaky headset
		Headsets are lubricated by disassembling them and packing new grease in the bearing races.
		Headset bearings can run very nicely in oil, but modern headsets are designed to use grease.
		The "inner races" of the bearings, which on headsets I'm familiar with would be pressed onto the steerer (bottom or fixed race) or be part of the adjustment apparatus at the top (top or adjustable race), were not separable from the rest of the bearings.

	Bicycle fork - Art History Online Reference and Guide (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		A bicycle fork is the portion of a bicycle that holds the front wheel and allows one to steer.
		A fork consists of two dropouts which hold the front wheel axle, two "blades" which join at a fork "crown", and a steerer to which the handlebars attach allowing the user to steer the bicycle.
		The suspension travel and handling characteristics vary depending on the type of mountain biking the fork is designed for.

	Publius & Co.: Victor builds a bike, Part One
		I suspect it's too big and it's darn difficult to make a large frame smaller, while you can fart around with a slightly small frame and make it seem larger (if you want the nasty details of why I think the bike is too big, re-read the story of my last ride of last season).
		The headset is that part of the bike that connects the fork to the bike and allows it to rotate smoothly.
		I know some home mechanics have made their own headset press using a nut & bolt with a couple of washers and brass bearings, but you can trash not just the headset but the bike frame if this job is screwed up.

	Serotta Competition Bicycle Forums - How to remove headset spacers from F1? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		I thought they would just slide up off the top of the steerer after I removed the stem, but I discovered that the top of the steerer is larger in outside diameter than the lower part where the spacers are located.
		Thus the top part of the steerer tube locks the spacers down.
		I can't figure out how the spacers were put on, let alone how to get them off.

	chris king headset input wanted
		i saw the new thread on damaging the frame from an integrated headset and now i wonder if i can even put a CK headset on, or if it would be better to get it on sooner rather than later...
		There are integrated HS where the bearings cups run directly in the frame and are more likely to damage one,especially if the frme is aluminum.Other integrated designs use a cup pressed into the frame that the bearings run in,therefore less risk of damage.
		i can't say i've ever touched the headset on my mtn bike, and quite frankly, all i know about it is that it's threaded (whatever that means--but don't explain it: i'm sure i'll figure it out when it's pertinent).

		Alas, the bicycle industry does what it has to do to move product, and the fact is that reducing manufacturing costs and creating new models with "all the latest disappointments," is the way they survive.
		Try to avoid threadless headsets on touring bicycles; this is not that hard to do, as most touring bicycles still use quill headsets (alas, the classic Trek 520 went over to the dark side, as did the REI Novara Randonee).
		This is useful with threadless headsets that don't have a star-fangled nut and adjusting bolt.
