re ahead headset bearings

Hi

I am intrigued now, the headset really doesn't have bearings. The headtube
is slightly conical at both ends and a circular split bush compresses into
the headtube when the central allen screw is tightened. I have googled for
it but cant find any info or images.

The bike is a trek 7200 hybrid.

thanks

Gary
