Parametric Bike Headset Spacer (Fork & Steerer)

The ultimate solution for precise headset adjustment: a fully parametric Bicycle Headset Spacer!

This isn't just a simple ring; it's the finishing touch for a perfectly dialed-in steering assembly. Whether you're fine-tuning your stack height for an aggressive race posture or simply ensuring zero play in your bearings, this spacer has you covered.

Technical Note: A headset spacer is crucial for correctly setting the preload on your bicycle's headset bearings. It sits on the fork steerer tube, beneath the stem or above the stem and beneath the top cap, allowing the top cap screw to properly compress and secure the entire headset assembly. Use the customizer to set your parameters and enjoy a perfectly tuned ride!

Option A - One-click print with the given print profile

Print the model as is:

• internal diameter: 28.6 mm (+ 0.25 tolerance)

Why print this?

1. Perfect Fit: Stop compromising! The design is fully parametric, allowing you to easily customize the InternalDiameter to match your fork steerer tube (typically 28.6mm or 1.81 inches, but adjustable!), the Width you like and the Height to the exact measurement required.
    
2. Structural Integrity: Designed to handle the clamping forces of your stem and top cap bolt, ensuring your front end stays tight and responsive. Print it with a durable material like PETG or ABS for best results, but also PLA works good.
    
3. Aesthetic Choice: Print it in any color imaginable to either blend in seamlessly or add a subtle pop of custom style to your ride!
