vice your headset. In wet conditions, ser-
vice may be necessary as often as every
6 months; in dry conditions, up to every
5 years.
Service of Bearings
• Our sealed bearings have removable
snap rings holding the seals in place.
Carefully remove snap ring and then
seal to gain access to the bearings.
Flush with solvent, blow dry, then lu-
bricate with a waterproof grease and
reassemble. Reuse seals and snap
rings unless damaged.
• If necessary, seals and snap rings are
available through your dealer or di-
rectly from Chris King Precision Com-
ponents.
PLEASE NOTE: Water is the most com-
mon cause of problems with any sealed
bearing. When water enters the frame
through breather or other holes it can
eventually work its way to the head tube
and into the headset bearings. High pres-
sure spray wash, transporting or riding
the bicycle in the rain, or submersion in
water while riding can quickly lead to this
condition. Although the stainless steel
bearings will resist corrosion, the grease
will eventually deteriorate. Avoid these
situations if possible or service as if in
wet conditions.
Removal and
Reinstallation
• Remove cups from head tube with a
standard cup removal tool, taking
care that tool contacts the inside
edges of the cup, not the bearing.
• To remove base plate from fork, we
recommend using a 1/4" or 3/8" drift
punch alternating strikes on either
side of fork crown to lessen the pos-
sibility of warping or bending.
• After removing base plate from fork,
carefully inspect for damage. Some
warpage may flatten upon reinstalla-
tion. If not, or if bearing contact sur-
face has become damaged, replace.
• Base plates and other parts are avail-
able individually through your dealer
or directly from Chris King Precision
Components.
