Is the Token Omega IS headset compatible with 1.5-inch lower forks?

No — this model is upper 1-1/8 / lower 1-1/4 only. For 1-1/8 upper / 1-1/2 lower (the most common full-tapered standard), Token makes a separate variant. Verify your frame's headtube lower cup dimension before ordering.

What is an integrated headset versus a traditional threaded headset?

An integrated headset seats bearings directly inside the frame's headtube without external cups. Traditional threaded headsets use external cups threaded into the headtube. Most modern bicycles use integrated threadless headsets; threaded headsets are found on older or urban city bikes.

How often should I service the Token Omega headset bearings?

Sealed bearings require minimal routine service. Inspect annually for roughness or play by holding the front brake and rocking the bike forward — any clunking indicates play. Full replacement typically needed every 3–7 years on road bikes.
