Cane Creek Hellbender 70 IS42/28.6 - IS52/40 Headset
Precise, high quality and affordable: the Hellbender 70 IS 42 Headset by Cane Creek
The Cane Creek Hellbender 70 headset sits between the 40 and the 110 headset series. Design, seals and bearings are reminiscent of the 110 headset, but the price is more on par with the 40 series. The upper and double lower bearing seals repel dust, mud and other contaminants. In addition, the Hellbender stainless steel bearing from Cane Creek was specially developed for adverse weather conditions. You can rely on the durability of the Hellbender 70 headset just as you can with the 110 series.

Standardized Headset Identification System (S.H.I.S.):
In order to clarify and bring uniformity to a sea of headset standards, manufacturers Acros, Cane Creek, Hope, Race Face, Reset Racing and Ritchey have agreed upon using a shared nomenclature, which will likely include more participating companies in the future. This system takes into account a combination of frame and fork dimensions. Both the top and bottom parts of the headset are marked by two alphanumeric identifiers. The first identifier indicates the type of headset (External Cup, Zero Stack, Integrated) and head tube diameter. The second identifier - separated from the first by a backslash - indicates the diameter of the steerer tube. When referring to a complete headset, the specifications of both top and bottom parts must be combined.Nomenclature:
- EC:
- Bearings contained within headset cups that are located outside of the frame (External Cup)
- ZS:
- Bearings contained within pressed-in headset cups where the cup and bearings rest inside the frame (Zero Stack)
- IS:
- Bearings that fit directly into a bonded or machined interface that is integrated into the frame (Integrated)
