Why do you want it?

You are seeking a lower-stack solution (~8 mm - 9 mm) that cleans up the existing through-the-headset cable routing on your Trek Emonda ALR (2023+) or Trek Domane (Gen IV) SL, SLR, RSL, or ALR, while using the parts referenced in the Trek Service Manuals.

You want to use a FSA / Vision, Specialized Tarmac SL7, Kalloy Uno, Enve In-Route or EXS stem / barstem on your Trek while keeping the cables neatly tucked away.

These products are best suited for use with electronic drivetrains. 

What is it?

There are currently SIX versions of this Part.

  1. The FSA / Vision ACR version allows you to use FSA ACR split spacers or transition spacers for the FSA / Vision ACR system.
  2. The FSA  / Vision Direct Fit SMR version will enable you to use the FSA  / Vision SMR or SMR-II stems mounted directly and slammed for a low stack height and streamlined look.
  3. The Enve version is designed only for use with the Enve InRoute system and is compatible with Enve split spacers.
  4. The EXS version is designed only to work with the EXS one piece barstem. EXS spacers can be used between the headset cover and transition spacer.
  5. The Tavelo Avro / Rise version can be used with the Tavelo Avro Gen-1, Avro Gravel, and Rise handlebars. It can use Tavelo spacers.
  6. The 2-Hole version only has room for  2 hydraulic hoses. It is also the lowest version that can be used with a standard -17-degree stem. It has a height of 4-5mm and can be used with regular round spacers.

In order to work, this part requires the Trek Domane MKIV Headset Split Ring (Part # W5274269). That split ring is listed as the service part for the Emonda ALR in the current service manual, but may not be included with that bike and can be purchased separately from your Trek dealer or via this link: https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/equipment/cycling-components/bike-headsets/trek-domane-mkiv-headset-split-ring/p/W5274269/

If you are ordering the FSA / Vision ACR version, you can purchase the following adapters for additional routing options:

Please message me to discuss options to fit other stems, custom dimensions, custom integration for stems, etc.

How is it Made?

These parts are printed in the USA on Commercial Grade HP Multi-Jet Fusion machines. Parts, like these, designed to hold preload are made using PA12GB. While this material costs over 2x more than traditional PA12 Nylon, the addition of the glass increases its strength under compression by 80% and in this application, eliminates creep. Given that SLS and MJF printed nylons are only 60%-70% of the density of the high-pressure injection-molded parts made by OEMs, this assures OEM level performance.

This part must be properly installed and the headset preloaded to manufacturer specifications.

Stems, bikes, Headset Split Ring, etc. not included.

Part is guaranteed to fit. If not, you will either be eligible for refund or remakes until this part fits.

If you select a custom stem adapter, please message me with details before ordering.

Note: Items are produced when ordered and have a 4-10 day lead time. Bulk discounts are available, please message / email for more information.

Small but worth its weight in gold

Only a small piece of plastic but worth its weight in gold.
This enabled my Trek Emonda ALR Palmeres Edition to go fully internal cabling using the Vision SMR stem.
A great little company I found online doing my research.
There in the USA so took a couple of weeks to arrive but you should expect that it was packed and shipped quickly by the sellers
Five stars from me ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great headset adapter

Fits perfectly and matches the Enve headset spacers nicely. Really cleaned up the cockpit on my bike. Thanks Aprotobike!

some modification was required with 2 hole version

some modification was required for using the 2 hole with 2 hydraulic lines and Di2 shift wire. had to drill and sand out the hole to be bigger. would recommend using a version with a larger hole if routing 2 hydraulic lines + di2 through it. time will tell how it holds up.

Install om Emonda ALR with Enve Aero Stem

Overall it works. But, it just barely rubs against top of headtube. Still smooth but definite even rubbing sound when turning bars. I used an Enve Aero stem which pinched brake hoses at entry into headtube. 2.5mm spacer below stem fixed that but wish I didn't need it.

I ordered the Domane bearing race but it turned out to be identical to one already in use.

Glad I installed it but it needs to be modified slightly at headtube and where brake hoses enter.

Hi Max, thank you for your purchase and review. I will reach out to you via email re: a replacement. It came to my attention that the batch that your part was made had another customer with the same issue regarding rubbing (also on a 2024 frame) and also reported that the bearing race part on their bike matched the service manual.
