Ask your BERGAMONT dealer to explain you both function and adjustment of
your stem or, still better, let him do that work.
DANGER!
G
In the case of turned stems, it is possible that the cables are too short. In
this case riding can be unsafe. If in doubt, ask your BERGAMONT dealer.
DANGER!
G
When removing spacers (a) the fork steerer tube must be shortened.
This change is irreversible. The shortening should be carried out by your
BERGAMONT dealer, but only after you have found your preferred position.
Wh
at to bear in mind with BERGAMONT bikes with carbon steerer
Always make sure before assembly to use a headset compatible with the stem.
If you want to use a product other than the original product, make sure it is
compatible with the BERGAMONT fork. BERGAMONT assumes no responsibili-
ty for problems resulting from the use of products other than series products.
Never use more than 40 mm stack height of spacers between headset and
stem (b).
Never use more than 5 mm stack height of spacers above the stem between the
top cap of the headset and the stem (b).
Do use minimum 5 mm stack height of spacers below the stem between the
cap of the headset and the stem.
1. The fork steerer, especially in case of a carbon steerer, must be assembled
with the originally supplied internal expander wedge. Never use a standard
star flanged nut on carbon fork steerers (c).
2. When cutting the steerer tube use handtools only. Do not use a power saw or
a speed cutter, but use a hand saw with a fine blade for metal cutting (d) and
a saw guide.
3. Once you have cut the steerer tube to the desired length, remove all burrs at
the top of the steerer tube. Make sure to wear appropriate safety protection,
safety goggles, gloves and breathing mask. Avoid inhaling the carbon dust.
Do not blow or sweep the dust off, but remove it with a moist rag. Dispose of
it immediately.
4. Apply a thin and even layer of grease on the bearings before mounting the
fork in the frame. Make sure the clamping surfaces of the stem remain clear
of grease. Otherwise there is the risk that a secure clamping of the stem is
no longer possible. Apply special carbon assembly paste on the inside of
the stem as well as on the fork steerer inside and outside in the area of the
clamping. This increases the friction and ensures a secure fit.
5. Slide the expander into the carbon steerer until it is flush with the top of the
steerer.
6. Tighten the expander by using an 8-mm Allen key to a maximum torque value of
4-5 Nm making sure that the expander stays flush to the top of the steerer and
doesn’t lift slightly (e). Make sure there is no more than 2.5 mm between the top
of the stem clamp and the top of the steerer as shown on the illustration.
Top cap
7.
Clamp the stem onto the steerer tube with a maximum of 6 Nm (f) and also
respect the maximum torque value of the stem manufacturer. The lower value
indicated on these components has to be accepted as a maximum torque
value. Do not overtighten!
8. Make sure the stem has no sharp edges on the contact area for the steerer
or the handlebar. This could result in serious accidents. In case you change
your stem to another model or brand, please contact your authorized
BERGAMONT dealer. BERGAMONT will not be liable in case a not originally
provided BERGAMONT stem is used on the bike assembly. In case of further
questions, please contact your authorized BERGAMONT dealer or the nation-
al distributor of BERGAMONT.
