Anyone knows what headset bearings to use for a CAAD12?
Fully integrated tapered headset bearings. Same as the CAAD10. Good discussion on replacement options here.
I have a creak on the handlebar and tried everything except grease/replace them.
You can strip it all down, clean it up, re-grease the surfaces then put it all back together relatively easily. If you haven't done it before, google 'integrated headset service' or something.
Can I use Marine Grease?
Yes. It's pretty thick but good for UK conditions...Phil grease is also top notch. Standard 'shop' grease will do, too.
On the crank, they use a white grease. What type/brand of a grease is this?
Might be lithium. Lithium is OK, but dries up after time.
