The Cane Creek Hellbender 70 Visco headset is engineered to actively stabilize steering and revolutionize your cycling experience. Housing Cane Creek’s patented headset damping technology, it is specifically designed to eliminate speed wobble—the rapid, side-to-side oscillation or shaking of your handlebars. This issue commonly affects a range of bicycles, including cargo bikes, commuter bikes, children’s bikes, gravel bikes, bikepacking rigs, and even occasional mountain bikes. The Hellbender 70 Visco headset helps riders maintain control and ride with confidence, significantly enhancing safety and predictability, especially with heavily loaded bikes or on challenging terrain.
Stabilization is provided by a unique internal stack of damping plates separated by a viscous carbon gel. This system creates controlled friction that dampens unwanted steering movements. The patented technology uses stainless steel shims called damping plates that create friction between inner and outer plates. Inner plates rotate with the handlebar, while outer plates remain stationary with the frame, providing effective damping.
Our engineering and product development team has already done the hard work, so you can simply enjoy the ride. All Hellbender 70 Visco Headsets come pre-assembled with a “mid-tune” damping setting.
However, if you need to increase or decrease the level of damping, all Hellbender 70 Visco headsets are tunable to fit your personal needs. Adjusting the level of damping requires no proprietary tools and is as simple as performing a basic headset service.
The Hellbender 70 Visco was designed with durability and longevity in mind. The cups and covers are machined from 7075 T-6 Aluminum and equipped with premium stainless steel Hellbender bearings. Robust seals are located at the crown race, steerer tube, and top cover to protect against the elements and ensure long-lasting reliability. It's compatible with internal cable routing and 1.5-inch straight steerer tubes.
Experience a smoother, more controlled, and confident ride with the Cane Creek Hellbender 70 Visco headset, where stability meets tunable performance.
