Replacement Headset Bearings

Postby Kral86 » Mon Dec 11, 2017 4:43 am

Hello All


I need to know what kind of Upper and Lower headset bearings are on a 2015 Cannondale Super Six Evo???

I could not steer the bike when loading it in the car so I checked the headset.

The upper bearing has completely seized up also started to get rust on it so I could not make out the etching of what kind of bearing it is

The lower bearing is ok but it has no etching to state what bearing it is.


Thanks in advance

Don't skimp on bearings such as the garbage Cannondale fitted on my bike and yours, and probably everyone else's.
My original ones pitted at about 10,000 km's.
The replacements from Cyclinic haven't rusted or pitted despite plenty of rain and 20,000km's+ distance.
