Sealed retainer CrMo bearings
The bearings of this headset are made with sealed retainer CrMo bearings. CrMo is a variant of steel that is mixed with chrome and molybdenum what gives the material strength. They are sealed to protect them against dirt, ensuring durability and easy replacement, making them a reliable choice for smoother rides. Although it is not as lightweight as aluminium it has a high tensile strength and is easy weldable. Therefore, it is stronger as standard steel and lasts longer.
External Cup (EC) / Threaded headset
The External Cup type is most obvious as you can see the bearings above and below the frame tube. The bearings are not exposed but hidden in a cup that slides into the frame. This type of headset gives you the code EC.
