How many different types of bearings are used in the modern day headset?Answer: There are at least 6 different kinds of bearings used in the bicycle headset. They include; radial bearings, thrust bearings and angular contact bearings. These three types of bearings all use ball bearings. The second category of bearings is the roller bearings which include the standard roller bearing and the tapered roller bearing. Both of these use cylindrical rollers. 2. There are many different types of bearings. Which one is best for the bicycle headset and why?Answer: Angular contact bearings are the most appropriate bearing for most headset applications. The primary reason is due to the fact that it is very efficient at dealing with the angular force that is exerted upon it. Whereas most deep groove industrial bearings are very efficient at dealing with vertical or horizontal loads, the pressing angle associated with the bicycle headset is much more angular. Most of headset use big diameter axle to increase the strength. As the limited space, the bearing should have a big bore with thin wall of inner ring and outer ring to insert in. ACB has a primary advantage that reinforces axial loads over than deep groove ball bearings. Angular Contact Ball Bearing is very efficient at dealing with both vertical (radial) and horizontal (axial) loads. Its great performances differ from other industrial bearing that only perform well in one direction. In many applications, ACB is used in pair due to its internal construction. It should be installed
