Sure, threaded headsets (hardly modern, but they do still make bikes with those) don't use top cap, but they also don't have a hole at the top, which products you are talking about?
PS. I searched and found some in-steerer storage. It's not a headset but essentially a hollow compression plug replacement with a top cap moved to the bottom. I have never seen a road fork with a hole at the bottom so it is likely limited to MTB forks and, since there is no compression in that thing, it might be not very safe with a carbon steerer.
- lostlogin 2mo agoFrame storage is my dream feature for a road bike. You see it on gravel bikes and it makes me very jealous.
- rjrjrjrj 2mo agoSome newer road bikes have it too. Canyon Endurace and Trek Domane, for example
- pandaman 2mo agoTrek dropped that (and "suspension" whatever it was called) from the new Domane.
- pandaman 2mo agoI ride several bikes so I would not know what to use the in-frame storage for. I want the things like repair kit (with batteries) and lights (also with batteries) to be movable between bikes so the batteries are charged in time. Even if all my bikes had in-frame storage it would be a chore to move its contents.
