The Elite 1-1/8″ Threadless Headset is a premium-quality component designed for cyclists who value precision, strength, and long-lasting performance. Whether you’re riding through rugged trails, navigating wet British weather, or simply commuting daily, this headset guarantees smooth handling and consistent durability.
Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminium using precision CNC machining, the Elite headset ensures a perfect balance of minimal weight and maximum strength. At only 92 grams, it reduces unnecessary bulk without compromising stability, making it an excellent choice for performance-driven riders.
One of its standout features is the quad-sealed angular contact bearings, paired with a double-sealed housing, specifically engineered to keep out dirt, mud, and moisture. This advanced sealing system ensures that your bike maintains a reliable and smooth steering response in all conditions, whether you are riding on-road or off-road. Adding to its resilience, the headset incorporates flush seal technology, which further protects the bearings and extends overall product life.
The expanding collar design guarantees that once the headset is tightened, it stays securely in place, minimizing the need for constant adjustments. This means less hassle for you and more time enjoying seamless rides. For added convenience, the Elite headset includes an alloy top cap and star-fangled nut, making installation straightforward and ensuring compatibility with a wide range of bikes.
Designed and tested in the UK, this headset is built to handle tough environments and extreme riding conditions. With full spares backup available, including the Replacement R408 bearing, you can maintain performance for years to come.
At Fixthisbike, we recommend the Elite 1-1/8″ Threadless Headset for riders seeking a reliable, lightweight, and precision-engineered upgrade. Whether you are a mountain biker, a road cyclist, or a daily commuter, this headset is a worthy addition to your setup. Trust Fixthisbike to provide components that enhance your riding experience with durability, performance, and style.

Bikes Delivery Information
Bike & Ride – The Premier Option for You
Fix This Bike is proud to be one of the few online bike retailers in the UK offering a delivery service that guarantees your bike arrives fully assembled and ready to ride. Our premier delivery option, ‘Bike & Ride,’ is available for just £70 per bike and ensures that your biking experience starts effortlessly and smoothly.
With ‘Bike & Ride,’ your new bike will arrive in a specially designed bike box with minimal packaging, ensuring protection during transit while reducing environmental impact. Included are all the necessary tools, so you can start riding within minutes of delivery. Our commitment to sustainability means we avoid using foam, bubble wrap, and zip-ties, opting instead for eco-friendly packaging. We encourage you to recycle any materials where possible, contributing to a greener planet and giving you the added satisfaction of making an environmentally responsible choice.
Bike & Ride for Standard Bikes
For standard bikes, our ‘Bike & Ride’ service ensures that each bike undergoes meticulous assembly and rigorous quality checks by our expert bike builders. This attention to detail guarantees that your bike meets the highest standards of safety and performance. To facilitate this thorough process, bicycles are not eligible for next-day delivery, ensuring each bike is perfectly prepared for you.
Bike & Ride for E-Bikes
Due to the additional weight and unique handling needs of electric bikes, we cannot ship them fully assembled. Instead, our expert mechanics will assemble, configure, and thoroughly inspect your electric bike before repacking it in its original box. This process requires the removal of the front wheel, handlebars, pedals, and seat-post, which you will need to reinstall upon delivery. We provide detailed instructions and all necessary tools to help you complete the assembly quickly and effortlessly.
Experience the unmatched convenience and quality of ‘Bike & Ride’ by purchasing your bike from our online shop. With Fix This Bike, you’re choosing a service that prioritises your riding experience, environmental responsibility, and exceptional quality from the moment you receive your bike.
