Will this work for s 2020 Nordest Britango 2?
A.
anwered by: mhutch
According to Nordest' website, the Britango has a 44mm headtube, so this is not the correct headset. This headset is for 34mm headtubes.

Would this work with a 2008 karate monkey?
A.
anwered by: mhutch
I can't find any information on the headtube size of the 2008 Karate monkey, as the 2008 Surly catalog only reads 1 1/8" Threadless. It would be best to have a shop measure your headtube to find the right headset.

Would this work for a 2019 Crust Evasion?
A.
anwered by: canteau
Unfortunately, they do not list their frame spec on their website. If the headtube measures 34mm this headset should work.

Will this fit on 2014 Lynskey R255
A.
anwered by: canteau
This is the headset that Cane Creek lists for the 2014 Lynskey R255, it's not a bad idea to measure the headtube to double check that it does in fact use a 34mm headset.

Does this fit a 2008 Trek Fuel EX 5.5?
A.
anwered by: canteau
Based on the information we have the Cane Creek 40 EC34 should fit your Trek Fuel EX 5.5. Before ordering it's not a bad idea to remove your headset cups and measure the frame to be sure. It should measure 34mm

anonymousTreefort is awesome to offer their price-match on their products, and it keeps me coming back to their website. The Cane Creek 40 is Cane Creek's "mid-level" offering and it doesn't disappoint. While I had to buy a second crown race for my build after marring the blue rubber seal at the bottom of the headset during installation, I have no regrets. By the way, Cane Creek's 10 Headset Series, their cheaper offerings have a split piece of plastic as a crown race that is extremely easy to install. But it doesn't keep out dirt like the 40 Series with its aluminum rubber seal crown race. I used home-made tools for the build as the cheapest offerings on a crown race setter are expensive--as are the other tools to get the whole headset installed. Especially if you only use it once or twice! If you're following down the same road as I did for a build, check out the many YouTube videos for a while on installing a Headset.

A GuestBought this to replace the stock aheadset which was in my stumpy. That one lasted 3 years - 3000 miles (?) and only failed because I dented the upper cup somehow.
I don't see the point in spending a ton of money on a headset when even the cheapest one (aheadset) will do just fine.
I got this middle of the road one because the price was only a bit over the entry level one. I am sure it will last me forever as long as I don't dent the cup again...
The only downside: The top cap included with this headset was too small to actually cover my stem (using a spesh stem with that adjustable angle bushing in it). Cane Creek told me just to re-use the one from the stock headset which I did.
