I have a Felt Z35 with a Cane Creek VP-A61ACK headset. I have been unable to find any obvious information on this headset on the Cane Creek website (why not, Cane Creek?) or anywhere else. What I would like to know is what size bearings will fit and is this headset compatible with any other Cane Creek model ? I do not want to take it apart to find if there are any numbers on the existing bearings as all is well at the moment.

    A quick reply back from Cane Creek. Thank you Gary.
    Answer.
    That is an IS style headset. Because VP is a separate company that licenses use of our patent, we may not have parts that are directly compatible. However you could upgrade to the IS-3 or the 110-IS.

    Success! All the info on this headset is on the website of www.vpcomponents.com.
    Hope this exercise is of use to others. I wonder now what cost it shaved,if any, off the cost of putting together the bike? Think I will give this one a rest.
