I bought a frame through here about 2/3 months ago and finally got round to finishing the build but it turns out the headset desperately needs replacing. I have been on the cane creek website but its asking for diameter of fork etc, but I have no vernier calipers to do this.
So, can anyone help me with the right tapered headset for a 2012 Trek Remedy with a Rockshox Domain tapered fork please.
I have a 2012 rumblefish and not many headsets fit. The trek website is good and will tell you but you may have to search a bit first. Im guessing this will be a standard size within the trek mountain bike line up.
On mine either the FSA no 57 or the cane creek 40 series fit. I know hope now do one too.

Would look at buying some vernier calipers, a very useful tool to have.
For the headset, pretty easy to ID if it's a ZS, IS or EC, and it will be a 44 top, if you have a taped fork, that answers the bottom.
Alternately get the LBS to ID it all when fitting?
Or do a bit of Googling, which brings all this back [url= http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/2012/archive/trek/remedy_9/#/us/en/archive-model/details?url=us/en/bikes/2012/archive/trek/remedy_9 ]Trek Remedy 2012 specs[/url] and then [url= http://www.fullspeedahead.com/products/headsets/no-57-orbit-1-5-zs-tapered-headset/ ]the headset details taken from the specs[/url]
Thanks both, will now search for the correct headset.
Contact Trek. Some of their bearings are specific to their frames.
