Wolf Tooth Premium Headset for Trek Knock Block Info

Wolf Tooth Premium Headset for Trek Knock Block is a precision-machined upper headset designed specifically for Trek frames equipped with the Knock Block frame protection system. Built to integrate seamlessly with Trek’s keyed cockpit architecture, this headset delivers smooth steering performance while preserving the safety and alignment benefits of Knock Block.

Machined in the USA from aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum, the headset features Wolf Tooth’s proven sealing design to protect bearings from moisture and contamination. Premium Enduro stainless steel bearings are included and backed by a lifetime warranty, ensuring long-term durability and consistent performance in all riding conditions.

The uniquely keyed top cover interfaces directly with Knock Block–compatible stems and spacers, working together to limit steering rotation and prevent fork crowns or handlebar controls from contacting the frame.
