What sets King components apart is our focus on the details. There are plenty of other lockrings on the market, but we wanted our wheels to have a lockring consistent with their quality, look and functionality. Basically, we can’t just leave well enough alone if we think we can make something better.
The King lockring is aluminum with a steel crush washer and has a classic King lasermark to match our headsets and rims.
We spent a lot of time on the exact shape of this piece. Sure, we wanted to make our own lockrings to match the color and finish of our components perfectly, but we couldn’t leave it at that. We like to get into the details here, to put things under a microscope and find something we can improve on. So that’s exactly what we did.
We made sure that our lockring is as thick as possible in the right places, so that tools won’t easily slip off while installing or removing it. We even investigated the textured knurling on the bottom. Our knurls are asymmetric, so the lockring will thread on easily, and resist coming loose.
