Hi I have just purchased a Specialized Allez frame (A1 Tubing) not sure how old it is?

Can anyone tell me what type of headset bearing i need for it?

Thanks.

    They have intergrated Cane Creek IS 2 type headsets, standard fitment from Spesh is ball-bearings and pressed-in races. Most people go for an upgrade when replacing them, to angular-contact bearings with proper seals.

    Like this type from CRC

    It`s a knock-out the old races and press in the new ones to do it.
