Hey, quick question about a bike frame a friend of mine has. It appears to be a 2004-2005 Klein Q Pro XX. How do I know if it takes one of those Klein proprietary headsets or a normal Cane Creek IS?

Thanks,

Cy

The Klein AirHeadset came on the XX, XV and Pro V in 2005.

Look at the top headset, should be Cane Creek. The bottom bearing is a bigger off the shelf bearing. Not a big deal if it needs to be replaced.

The '04-'05 Kleins used Trek's carbon composite rear end, round wishbone. The '02 & '03 models used Time's rear carbon composite rear with contoured wishbone. Same headset though.

Thanks for the responses! To clarify, The frame has no headset and we are trying to figure out which one to buy. The inside diameter at the top is 41mm. Will something like this fit: http://www.artscyclery.com/descpage-CC40CC18HS.html ?

Thanks.

As a PS, I can forward a pdf of the 2005 Klein catalog if that would help.
