Our new, limited-edition, multi-colored Splash components were inspired by the hit 1984 romantic comedy of the same name starring Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah, because we’ve always loved mermaids, and anyway this was back when Tom Hanks was still doing his kind of slapstick, nice guy comedy, before he got all serious and voice-of-a-generation about everything. No. Not really. We just asked ourselves, what if we took two of our more popular colors, inspired by Matte Bourbon and Turquoise, and put them together in one place. High contrast. High concept. But also a little bit of a throwback to the ‘80s when people were doing splatter and drip finishes on bikes. It’s funny really, because these two colors represent the opposite poles of our collection. Bronze is refined, classy, even elegant. Turquoise is bold, brash, loud. Together we think they’re something entirely different, and entirely different is what we were going for. If you love that splatter look, are craving something different, or just really like Tom Hanks, this is the look you’ve been looking for. The Fine Print: Splash is in EXTREMELY limited supply. Just 25 R45D kits exist. Limit one per customer. This kit comes with a King GRD23 wheelset, headset, and bottom bracket (with Fit Kit). Again, these items are incredibly limited and we do not have extras. Our Splash finish is, by nature, random. The coverage, density, and arrangement of your Splash will be unique and vary from part to part. Some color variations may occur. That's what makes it cool. Kit Specifications: - GRD23 wheels - R45D Centerlock hubs in 24/24 Drilling - 100x12mm front/142x12mm rear axle spacing only - XDR Driveshell - Headset: Dropset 3 (IS41/IS52) - Bottom Bracket: Threadfit 30 If you have any questions regarding fitment, please email or call us.

Why We Make This The simple answer is that many contemporary bicycle frame designs call for the headset bearings to ride inside the frame’s headtube. After decades of making press-in bearing headsets, we needed to make headsets that worked in these newer frames. From the beginning we understood that integrated headsets posed a unique challenge in that the bearings are not pressed into a cup and sit loosely in the frame. When bearings are not pressed securely into a cup they shift and move, rapidly losing preload. As preload drops, the bearings are more susceptible to creaking, damage, and failure. That’s a problem we know how to solve. Why You Want It Enter, our patented GripLock™ bearing cap. The GripLock™ preloads the headset independently of clamping onto the steerer, so it retains preload far better than the competition and is impervious to the ill effects of load spikes from large hits and heavy braking. This means smoother steering, no more creaking, and a longer lasting headset. Our GripLock™ design also takes the guesswork out of preloading a headset, because the bearing preload force is independent of the clamping force. Our headsets can be preloaded to a torque spec. Compatible with Santa Cruz, Yeti, Alchemy, Santa Cruz Stigmata (without baseplate), Ibis Hakka MX, and more. - Engineered, manufactured and assembled in Portland, Oregon USA - King Lifetime Warranty - Legendary made-in-house bearings - Patented GripLock® retention design for dependable headset adjustment (US Patent 8662517) - 41mm 45x45 upper bearing - 52mm 36x45 lower bearing - Compatible with the included baseplate and 36 degree integrated crown races
