Description

The CANE CREEK Hellbender 70 Visco lower headset assembly features a patented steering stabiliser designed to reduce shimmy (speed wobble) and improve bike control, particularly on electric bikes, cargo bikes, loaded touring bikes and utility bikes.

Its damping system uses a stack of damping plates separated by a viscous carbon gel, reducing high-frequency steering oscillations and stabilising the ride on a loaded bike.

7075 T-6 aluminium cup and cover, with premium sealed stainless steel bearings. Supplied preset to the Medium tune, adjustable by changing the orientation of the internal shims.
