Crafted from premium 6061 aluminum, the Wolf Tooth IS Headset boasts exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring durability without adding unnecessary weight to your bike. Each component is precision-machined in-house, reflecting Wolf Tooth’s commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

The upper assembly features an ultralight stem cap with integrated spacer options (7mm, 15mm, and 25mm), aluminum bolt, and star nut for secure installation. The o-ring seal around the steerer tube prevents water intrusion, while the custom upper lip seal enhances bearing protection.
