Aug 4, 2016 at 13:30 comment added Uri Bader After the current edit I would write my answer as follows: $TM$ is locally trivial, so find a measurable partition $\{U\}$ such that $TM|_U$ is trivial. Enough to work separately on each part, thus we can assume that $TU\simeq U\times \mathbb{R}^d$, and you have a measurable map $U\to$ inner products on $\mathbb{R}^d$. Take the standard basis of $\mathbb{R}^d$ at each $u\in U$ and form a Grahm-Schmidt process. You will obtain an orthonormal basis at each $u$ that varies measurably. Use it to form your linear map.
