Canyon roadlite 5 headset bearing replacement

Does anyone know the headset bearing size for canyon roadlite 5 2022?

I would like to replace the bearing. Canyon sells it for 60 euros, which is expensive for me and they also obv don't tell the size.

So I am thinking of buying it somewhere else if I know the dimensions. I can check the size by taking apart the headset, but it would be nicer if someone here knows already.

I upgraded my TCR advanced 2 (lowest tier) with decent parts and here is how it looks!

Brought the weight down from 8515 gr without bottle cages and pedals to 7390 gr with bottle cages and pedals!

~3000 km later and it still feels amazing (looks amazing too!)...

Upgraded parts (some were from my previous bike) :

Saddle : Prologo Stratch M5 Nack
Groupset (except crankset) : Ultegra di2 12 sp (11-30 cassette)
Wheelset : Elitewheels Edge 1.0 50 mm
Handlebar : Kreuza apex (from elitewheels)
Pedal : Onirii PD-06, titanium axle
Tires : Continental GP 5000 28 mm (with TPU tubes)
(to be done) Crankset : Elilee X310 (when I want to replace my BB)

Back then, since I had most of the parts, I was doubting whether to buy the TCR advanced pro frameset or TCR advanced 2 (complete bike). But really glad that I chose for the latter. Below are my considerations :

TCR adv pro frameset only :

Pros : Really cool paintjob & (only) 17 gr lighter (frameset only)
Cons : D-shaped steerer tube (limits the choice of stem)

TCR adv 2 complete bike :

Pros : Full bike cost (was on discount) cheaper compared to TCR adv pro frameset & "standard" steerer tube (round 1 1/8 inch)
Cons : Worse paintjob compared to previous option (still cool though!). But then I thought, if I sell the parts from the original adv 2, I could use the money for a custom paintjob!
