Cane Creek Hellbender 70 Slam Headset

The lowest stack Cane Creek make

The Cane Creek Hellbender 70 Slam uses an ultra-low-stack top cover - just 2 mm on the ZS top and 4.6 mm on the IS top - so you can drop your bars as low as possible or get away with a short steerer.

Inside it's pure Hellbender: sealed stainless steel bearings, a dual-seal alloy crown race and 6061-T6 aluminium that's internally contoured to save weight.

The Inside Line:
For anyone who's ever looked at their stem and thought "lower". Slam that front end for an aggressive race position, or rescue the fork you cut a touch too short. We won't tell anyone.

Features:

• Ultra-low stack: ZS top 2 mm, IS top 4.6 mm
• Sealed stainless steel Hellbender bearings
• Alloy dual-seal crown race
• 6061-T6 aluminium, internally contoured and relieved
• Top only option for when you just need to lower an existing setup

Notes:

• Black only.

How to find your headset size:

• Cane Creek use the S.H.I.S. code, e.g. ZS44/28.6 | ZS56/40. The part before the bar is the top of the headset, the part after it is the bottom.
• The letters tell you how the cup sits: IS = integrated (the bearing drops straight into the frame), ZS = zero stack (a cup pressed inside the head tube), EC = external cup (the cup sits outside the head tube).
• The first number is the head tube bore in mm (e.g. 44 or 56).
• The second number is the steerer size it fits: 25.4 or 26 = 1", 28.6 or 30 = 1-1/8", 33 = 1-1/4", 38.1 or 40 = 1.5" (tapered forks are 1-1/8" at the top and 1.5" at the bottom).
• Most bike brands list the code on their spec sheet. If yours doesn't, check the Headset Code Breaker chart in the image gallery, or send us your bike's make, model and year and we'll find it for you.
