[Closed] Can anyone tell me what this headset is?

(Cane Creek) Aheadset. Its written on the thing!

(well the writing on it looks the same as this: http://www.mtbr.com/cat/controls/headset/cane-creek/aheadset-al/PRD_352009_124crx.aspx)

Yup I know it's probably made by Crane Creek as it has their patent no. on it - but which one?

I've already looked at the Trek archive thanks, it tells me nothing that's relevant unfortunately

Its not a slim stack as mentioned in the Trek bikes archive though -as said it does look like a semi-integrated however are there any codes on it to look it up?

However the picture looks right so it is an old version of the Canecreek Slimstack?

Looks like a conical spacer on a semi-integrated?

however are there any codes on it to look it up?

no, all it's got is "Aheadset pat. 509770" on it, which is just Cane Creeks generic aheadset one

Any help?

seems the same quoted headset - I wonder if its worth getting in touch with Cane Creek - They have replied to my queries before?

cheers - I've seen a few forum posts like that but not which seen to pin it down though

As you say, I'll shoot an email to Cane Creek

Same as this one?

"Thanks for the help Iddu and others :thumbsup:

I've finally solved the problem(hopefully ::-)) after JE James cycles phoned me back today and told me that Trek have their own specific sizing for the external diameter of the bearings in their integrated headsets,hence you can only buy spares from Trek ::-)

I've ordered 2 while I can in case they stop making the one I need at any time 8)

Many thanks to JE James cycles.Good service."

certainly looks like it

I've emailed them - I'll report back

That other post sort of confirms me fears re a special size

As above - doesn't look good 🙁

Have you tried the Cane Creek headset finder?

Have you tried the Cane Creek headset finder?

I did but my bike isn't listed
I can manually put the figures in if push comes to shove when I've stripped it

Looks like it could be a ZSC1 - I have (most) of an old, dead one that I could send you to see if it's right, then at least you know what to order?

TN - thanks, I appreciate that

I'll give you a shout if Cane Creek can't identify it

cheers

Please do. I had a nightmare identifying it for the bike I've just built so if it is and I can save you some time that'd be cool...
