Q & A

I have a 2012 Trek Madone. What are the upper headset bearing replacement parts? Robert Cosgriff asked on September 11, 2023

The 2012 Madone uses an IS41 upper headset, which uses a 41mm bearing.

I need to install a fork with a 1" threadless steerer into a 1 1/8" treadless head tube. I have a new 1" headset. Are 3rd party spacer-adapters a solution? Or why aren't there (Cane Creak) headsets designed to do this? Thanks. Neile Weissman asked on September 2, 2023

Unfortunately there are no conversion headset products to allow a one-inch (1") fork to be used in any headtube other than a 30mm inner diameter (ID) head tube.

1" forks and bikes that use them are much less common these days with most bikes made in the last 25 years using 34mm ID head tubes or larger.

Your best option is to find a fork using a 1-1/8" steer tube, or a bike with a 30mm ID head tube. We do offer headsets for both...

I have a 2008 cannondale supersix and I need new headset bearings. The cannondale part number is KP044. Which bearings would I order from you? Andy asked on August 23, 2023

It appears your 2008 SuperSix needs a 42mm top bearing, and 52mm lower bearing. It does not indicate whether these need to be 36x45 or 45x45 contact angles but your current bearings may have this laser etched into the side of them. If you are not sure... you can replace the entire headset so all the parts (bearings and components) are the same manufacturer and this will work great. The complete headset needed is IS42 top and IS52/40 lower. We offer this in our 40 Series, Hellbender 70, and 110 Series depending on which level you need...

I have a 2011 Specialized Stumpjumper EVO HT. I'm looking to replace the 1 1/8 straight steerer tube fork with a modern 1.5 inch tapered fork. Which complete headset would be best, understanding the bottom bearing will now be external. Also prefer zero stack top. Thanks! Jeff asked on August 23, 2023

The best information I could find on your 2011 Stumpy hardtail is that its using...
"HEADSET - 1-1/8"" upper and lower campy style cartridge bearings for integrated alloy HT

This indicates the frame uses an integrated headset, which does not use press fit bearing cups. It appears to be an IS42 straight headsets (upper and lower). You can verify this by seeing if the frame has cups, and if it does not, you should measure approx 41.8mm for the inner diameter of the head tube.

If this is the case, and the frame uses an integrated headset, you cannot use a tapered fork. Conversion headsets require a 44mm ID head tube and your Stumpy has a 42mm ID head tube."

I need to replace a 20 year old C - 1 headset fitted to a MT800 Cannondale Tandem, having replaced the bearings in the past this is now not possible because the whole things is starting to degrade, lots of salty air where I now live. I gather it is 1 1/8 what do you recommend as a replacement? Charlie asked on August 21, 2023

You need an EC34 complete headset... meaning EC34 for both upper and lower headset. This is our part number: BAA0068K - 40 Series EC34/28.6-EC34/30

Thin and weak then broken. It might be overtorque.

Cant have the headset without these! Ordered a spare as I run a few different fork set ups, so having them all ready to go with races in place speeds up the swaps!

Best part of being a part of the Cane Creek family:  It’s very refreshing to work for a small, tight-knit company where we all share the same passions and to develop new products that make cycling better for everyone.
What you’ll find me doing on the weekends: Obviously riding bikes, but also wrenching on bikes or cars, exploring the mountains, and watching F1 races.
How I got here (at Cane Creek): Feeling pretty unfulfilled with a corporate engineering job, I happened to see that Cane Creek was hiring. I jumped at the opportunity to get my hands dirty working on the latest bike tech and was fortunate enough to be offered the position.
