About the Ritchey brand

Ritchey is well known for ingenious mountain bikes and parts, but Tom Ritchey was building world class road frames and rethinking every part of the road bike as early as 1974---long before mountain biking came along. After decades of refinement, Ritchey road components are the lightest, strongest and highest quality parts available, and race proven by top professional teams in the world's toughest pro races. Look for Ritchey components on team bikes in the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, World Championships and Spring Classics, as well as countless other races.

Rated 5 out of 5 by nwgsp90 from great excellent product, works very well, great service from wiggle

Rated 4 out of 5 by BlackDog24 from Needed a new headset solution as the one that came with the bike was rubbish. This does the job properly on a carbon fork tube. Was a bit fiddly to get started but a bit of patience and it works fine. Headset now all secure and working fine. The Ritchey top cap looks a bit dated to me but that's my only minor grumble. The little grommet that fits over the bolt is great - keeps the rain out of the bolt and stops the rust!

What dimensions does this fit?

My carbon forks have outer diameter 28 mm (1 1/8 inch) and inner diameter 24mm - will this compression headset fit these dimensions? Thanks, Dan
Asked by: DMc23
I purchased to used on a rigid MTB fork -Do not buy this product: Reason- It is short and would not lock everything together in one motion of locking into the inner carbon tube while also pulling / clamping spacers and stem together. In the end I purchased a Chinese no name model which separately first of all locks into the inner tube via an Allen key with a thread in middle then you place spacer and stem then screw the locking cap into the very secure insert. Like I previously stated don't buy this product.

Ritchey WCS Fork

It might sound a ridiculous question but I've asked for advice before and the lifeline integrated headset you guys recommended came with starnut (which is NOT recommendable for carbon steerer tubes). Can you please confirme this will fit my ritchey wcs carbon fork on my 2010 Lapierre xelius web series ??
Asked by: GuidoSP
This should be suitable without issue.
