Patent ID: 7341269

Claim:
A bicycle headset structure comprising: a tubular section having a first end with an upper end opening, an axial passageway extending axially from the first end towards a second end of the tubular section, and an outer peripheral surface with external threads over the axial passageway, the external threads being configured and arranged to adjustably couple the tubular section to a steerer tube, the steerer tube having internal threads and being arranged and configured to threadedly engage the external threads of the outer peripheral surface; a top abutment section extending radially from the tubular section to form an abutment surface that faces in an axial direction towards the second end of the tubular section; and an attachment assembly adjustably coupled to the tubular section in an axial direction of the steerer tube to apply an axially directed force onto a bicycle headtube such that selective adjustment of the attachment assembly results in an abutment surface of the attachment assembly applying a downward force on the bicycle head tube to hold the steerer tube within the bicycle head tube.
