I just picked up a 2000 Trek 7000 mtb. I'm trying to see if its a 1 1/8" fork steerer thing. The modern standard and whatnot. Trek sent me some information on the bike, but I'm still pretty confused :(.
Here's the data:

Headset: Dia-Compe SA Aheadset, alloy - 25.4/34.0/30.0, 27.0mm stack
Stem - Icon Onyx, direct connect - 41.0 mm steerer clamp height
Fork - Manitou SX - 80mm travel

Any help would be appreciated, as I'm completely lost. All those headset numbers are meaningless to me :o .

Thanks!
