What Is the Name of This Headset Part?


What is the part on the right called? And what sizes are important when buying a shorter one to lower the bars? That is, 1 1/8" steerer tube is the ID of the top. Is the ID or OD of the bottom variable?

A top cap or bearing cover.

You can get a zero-height one from slamthatstem.com, if you're so inclined.
