What is a Hexcap? + Easy Install Guide

A mountain bike (MTB) topcap is the small but essential component that sits at the top of your bikeโ€™s headset, right above the stem. Itโ€™s used to preload the headset bearings and keep your steering smooth and secure.

STEP 1:

To swap your top cap out effectively, loosen the pinch bolts on your stem before taking apart your cap. Then loosen the headset top cap.

STEP 2:

Replace top cap and tighten the top cap on, your top cap acts as a compression mechanism to ensure your headset is tight before your stem clamps it all together, therefore it is unnecessary to over torque this bolt.

STEP 3:

Generally 3-4nm will be perfect for tightening your top cap, If you donโ€™t have access to a torque wrench a good gauge is to tighten the top cap until you canโ€™t rotate the spacers under your stem with your fingers.

STEP 4:

Then tighten your stems pinch bolts and your ready to ride!
