Your bike headset is the mechanism that joins your bicycle forks to your bike’s frame, so you need to make sure that you have a good quality headset that will provide you with a smooth turning movement in your bike’s forks while also giving your bike strength at such a pivotal point where all the punishment you dish out is transferred. So, if you’re riding a mountain bike on demanding trails, then you better be sure to have bike headset parts that are strong enough to take the hard knocks…such as the range of Ritchey Logic headsets.
