Management game - Rollers for management

THE steering game Defines all the bearings arranged at the steering tube to allow you to run the fork fluidly when you turn the handlebars. There are several standards of management games that vary depending on the discipline (mountain bike or road bike), the model and the frame of the frame.

Management game - 4 main standards

There are 4 types of game standards direction:

• The steering game to screw, the oldest steering station standard which is therefore generally on old generation bikes.
• The Aheadset management game, also called "standard" game, which is today the most widespread management game on bikes. As with the steering game to be screwed, its particularity is to have the bearings located outside the steering socket.
• The semi -integrated steering game, for which the bearings are inside the steering socket
• The integrated steering game, the most modern, also has the bearings placed inside, except that there are no bowls and that they are integrated directly into the steering socket.

Steering game - different sizes depending on the fork

These steering game standards are available in several sizes depending on the diameter of fork pivots:

• Size 1 "for a diameter of 25.4mm
• Size 1 "1/8 for a diameter of 28.6mm
• Size 1 "1/4 for a diameter of 31.8mm
• Size 1 "1/2 for a diameter of 38.1mm 

There are even steering games with upper bearings diameters is lower different sizes to adapt to certain forks whose pivot is "conical". Whatever your bike and the management game you need, you will have the choice on Probikeshop.fr to find the model you need among the best brands on the market.
