SHORT MANUAL | OWNER`S MANUAL 2016
OWNER`S MANUAL 2016 | SHORT MANUAL
Tighten the bolts evenly and in a cross pattern, i.e. alternately and gradually, to
the lower value of the recommended torque values using a torque wrench.
Try rotating the handlebars once clamped in the stem (a) and tighten the bolt a
little more, if necessary (b). Use a torque wrench and never exceed the maxi-
mum torque values! You find them directly on the components and/or in the
manuals of the component manufacturers on the enclosed BERGAMONT info
CD. If the handlebars are not tight with the prescribed torque value, use carbon
assembly paste.
After adjusting the handlebars you need to adjust the brake lever/shifter units.
Release the Allen bolt at either unit. Turn the levers relative to the handlebars.
Sit in the saddle and place your fingers on the brake levers.
Check whether the back of your hand forms a straight line with the line of your
forearm (c). Retighten the units with a torque wrench and do a twist test! The
brake levers need not be absolutely tight. In case of a fall it is an advantage
when the brake levers can be turned.
DANGER!
G
Tighten the bolts at the stem until the clamping slots between the stem
body and the faceplate are parallel and identical in width at the top and at
the bottom. Tighten the bolts evenly and in a cross pattern (d), i.e. alternately
and gradually, by using a torque wrench to the lower value of the recommended
torque values.
DANGER!
G
Note that the bolted connections of the stem, handlebars, bar ends and
brakes have to be turned to their prescribed torque values. Use a torque
wrench and never exceed the maximum torque values! The torque values are
given in the chapter “Recommended torque settings for your BERGAMONT
bike” in this BERGAMONT short manual as well as in your detailed BERGAMONT
owner’s manual, directly on the components and/or in the manuals of the com-
ponent manufacturers on the enclosed BERGAMONT info CD.
Bar ends
Bar ends and multi-position handlebars give you additional ways of gripping the
handlebars.
The bar ends are mounted with a slight upward inclination. Never fix bar ends in
vertical position or with their ends pointing rearwards as this would increase the
risk of injury in the event of an accident.
DANGER!
G
Be aware that the distance you need to stop your bike increases, when you
are riding with your hands on bar ends (e) or on multi-position handlebars.
The brake levers are not always within easy reach.
CAUTION!
A
If you want to mount multi-position handlebars or bar ends to the alumin-
ium or carbon handlebars of your BERGAMONT bike, inform yourself in
advance whether these components are permitted on your BERGAMONT bike.
If necessary, contact your BERGAMONT dealer before mounting.
SUSPENSION ON BERGAMONT BIKES
FRONT SUSPENSION
Lots of BERGAMONT bikes, in particular BERGAMONT mountain bikes,
BERGAMONT cross and BERGAMONT trekking bikes have suspension forks
(f). This feature gives you better control of your BERGAMONT bike when riding
cross-country or on rough road surfaces and ensures more ground contact for
the tyre. The (shock) loads on you and your BERGAMONT bike are noticeably
reduced. Suspension forks differ in their types of spring elements and damping.
Suspension forks normally work with air spring elements or with coil springs.
