Unleash legendary durability and precision control on the most demanding trails with the FSA The Pig DH 1 1/8 Inch Steering System. As a cornerstone in the world of heavy-duty headsets and a vital component in our spare parts category, The Pig DH is engineered for riders who push their limits and demand components that can keep up. Whether you´re charging down technical downhill tracks, hitting massive freeride lines, or sessioning dirt jumps, this headset is built to provide unwavering performance and reliability, run after run. It stands as the benchmark for strength in the world of mountain bike steering systems.
The foundation of The Pig DH´s bombproof reputation lies in its robust design, specifically tailored for extreme impacts and high-stress situations. With an angular contact bearing in the top and a heavy-duty industrial sealed cartridge bearing in the bottom, The NO.15 will take anything you can throw at it. This hybrid bearing configuration ensures both smooth steering action and immense load-bearing capacity, a perfect combination for absorbing harsh landings and navigating rough terrain without a hint of play. Furthermore, the innovative deep-insertion cups (alloy top, chromoly bottom) are a critical feature, actively guarding against head tube flaring—a common issue under the severe forces of aggressive riding. This design element ensures the integrity of your frame and the longevity of your entire steering setup, giving you the confidence to send it bigger.
Beyond its sheer toughness, the FSA The Pig DH provides the smooth, responsive steering essential for technical maneuvers and high-speed control. The precision-engineered bearings minimize friction, translating your every input directly to the front wheel for an intuitive and connected feel. Its compatibility with GYRO systems makes it a top choice for dirt jumpers and slopestyle riders looking to perform barspins and tailwhips without cable interference. Designed to fit standard OS headtubes and 1-1/8 inch straight steerer forks, this headset serves as the ultimate upgrade or a super-strong replacement for a wide range of mountain bikes. Choose the legendary performance of The Pig DH for peace of mind on every ride.
