This is correct.

The crank is square taper - it'll either use a 15/14mm recessed nut or a 8mm hex to remove whatever is securing the crank on. You'll then need a square taper type crank puller. Park CCP-22



Trek doesn't even list the type of bottom bracket it has - you'll need to know this in order to select the correct tool for removing this from your frame. You can take a picture once the cranks are off and we can determine the correct tool for you.
