CANE CREEK 50 EC34 TAPERED

A sophisticated headset in both design and performance

CANE CREEK is based in North Carolina, USA, where it conducts development, research, and production. In recent years, CANE CREEK has not limited itself to headsets, but has also begun developing component products such as brakes and MTB suspension. Since 2017, the company has also partnered with ee cycle works to release a series of new products, including the eeBrake and eeWings titanium cranks, which weigh only 80 grams.

The 50 (Fifty) is positioned between the 40 (Forty) and Hellbender 70 headsets, with a modern, supple look but at a relatively affordable price.
Additional machining (manithing) and sophisticated laser engraving on the top cover and cups give it a sharper design. The O-ring seal that attaches to the steerer, the low-friction top cover seal, and the co-molded crown race slip seal provide excellent dust and water protection.
