With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.
We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. If something isn’t right, here’s how we can help:

Brand:Hope
Code:HDOCPU
If you want your regular headset tightening and adjustments to be a thing of the past, then the Head Doctor is for you. Hope has made it from anodised aluminium with laser-etched graphics for a premium look. Its expander bung replaces the traditional "star nut" design for a safer hold with more even clamping force inside your fork’s steerer tube.
When you install it, two aluminium wedges simply pull together and expand inside any1.1/8 steerer giving you a solid thread to pull the stem down. Sounds simple? It is.
Please Note:Before use, take apart and grease all of the internal threads and surfaces that have to slide against one another (NOT the surface that will touch the inside of the steerer), failure to do this will make it feel tight before it is. This makes it tempting to tighten even more and as this is a lightweight alloy bolt, it will snap if over tightened. Grease threads and surfaces and it will be fine.
