Headset RITCHEY Comp Switch Upper Press Fit 1.5" ZS55 for 80" stem

The RITCHEY Comp Switch Headset Upper Press Fit 1.5" ZS55 is an essential part of the new Ritchey Switch system. Specifically designed for the Ritchey Switch stem, it plays a crucial role in routing cables, wires and hydraulic lines from the handlebars to the bike frame.

Specifically, cables are routed from the handlebars to the headset conduit on the underside of the Switch stem. They then pass through an opening in the front of the Switch headset braces before following two channels on the top of the headset and entering the frame. This ingenious system allows the headset bearings to operate without any interference from cables, wires or lines passing through the head tube.

In short, the Comp ZS56/28.6 headset optimizes the smooth passage of cables between handlebar and frame, guaranteeing a smooth riding experience and optimum aerodynamic performance.
