External headsets have held their ground on steel and titanium frames for good reason — and the CeramicSpeed Ceramic Outboard Headset makes the case for keeping them there. Built around CeramicSpeed's ceramic ball bearings seated in hardened steel races, this headset is engineered for a steering feel that stays smooth far longer than conventional bearings allow.

The bearings press into aluminum cups designed for 44mm inner diameter head tubes, with taper compatibility from 1 1/8" to 1 1/4" — a setup that suits a wide range of steel and titanium road frames running tapered forks. The package includes an aluminum dustcover, a 1cm carbon-fiber spacer, and CeramicSpeed's own Long Life Grease, so you have what you need to install and protect the headset from day one.
