While our sealed bearings carry an impressive
reputation for durability, we respect the personal initiative
of our customers to perform routine service. In fact,
we encourage it. Once a Chris King hub or headset is
disassembled to expose the bearings, replacement seal
and snap ring kits can be installed using a simple penknife.
Kits include replacement constant contact seals and
snap rings for our cartridge style bearings in Chris
King front hubs, rear hubs, and headsets. One complete
kit is necessary for each set of bearings serviced per
hub or headset.
