The ORBEA Integrated Headset MTB 1 1/8 - 1 1/2 is designed to deliver smooth, precise steering performance for modern mountain bikes that use a tapered steerer and integrated headset standard. Sitting neatly inside the frame’s head tube, this headset provides a clean, low-profile look while ensuring reliable bearing alignment and long-lasting durability. It is ideal for riders who want to refresh a worn-out front end, upgrade an existing frame, or complete a custom MTB build with components that match the quality of a premium brand like ORBEA.
Engineered for off-road use, this integrated headset is built to handle the impacts, vibrations, and harsh conditions typical of trail, cross-country, and all-mountain riding. Quality sealed bearings (or equivalent durable bearing solutions commonly used in integrated headsets) help keep out dirt and moisture, reducing maintenance needs and preserving smooth steering over time. The tapered 1 1/8" to 1 1/2" design increases front-end stiffness and control, especially on technical descents and rough terrain. Whether you are replacing an original headset on an ORBEA frame or fitting it to a compatible MTB chassis, this component offers a dependable, precise interface between fork and frame, helping you ride with confidence and control.
