The ZIPP Vorbaukappe is a high-quality top cap designed to complete your cockpit with the clean, precise look you expect from Zipp components. Mounted on the top of your steerer tube, this cap helps preload the headset bearings and keep your front end running smooth and rattle-free. Its refined design pairs perfectly with modern stems and handlebars, making it an ideal finishing touch for performance-oriented road, gravel, or cyclocross bikes, as well as high-end mountain bikes that use a standard threadless headset system.
Crafted with attention to detail, the ZIPP Vorbaukappe typically features a low-profile shape and a sleek finish that complements both carbon and alloy cockpits. It is usually installed with a standard bolt and star nut or compression plug, allowing easy adjustment of headset tension during setup or maintenance. Riders choose a premium top cap not only for function, but also to add a subtle visual upgrade to the front of the bike. With Zipp’s reputation for performance and aesthetics, this top cap is a simple yet effective way to refine your bike’s look and feel.
