DANGER!
G
Bear in mind that by overtightening the bolts the stem can crush the steerer tube.
In particular forks with carbon steerer tubes are highly sensitive to overtightening
the steerer tube clamping at the stem. Risk of breakage! Make sure the clamping
area is absolutely free of grease when any of the clamping faces is made of carbon.
If necessary, use carbon assembly paste in the clamping areas to ensure maximum
clamping.
DANGER!
G
Check the secure seat of the stem by taking the front wheel between your legs and
trying to turn the handlebars and stem relative to the wheel (e). A loose stem can
cause an accident.
DANGER!
G
Never change the preloading mechanism in the inside of the fork steerer tube.
Never install a star nut in carbon fork steerer tubes.
CAUTION!
A
Do not overtighten the upper bolt, it only serves to adjust the headset play.
NOTE!
I
If you do not succeed in adjusting the headset, this can have several reasons. If
you are not absolutely sure, ask your BERGAMONT dealer for help.
LIGHTING OF YOUR BERGAMONT BIKE
For riding on public roads a functioning lighting set (f) is obligatory (see the chapter
“Legal requirements for riding on public roads”).
To check whether the headset runs smoothly, lift the frame up until the front wheel
no longer touches the ground. The handlebars should turn from far left to far
right without feeling roughness or tightness at any point. With a gentle tap on the
handlebars the fork should turn easily from the middle position (a).
If you face any problems during the test, contact your BERGAMONT dealer.
DANGER!
G
Adjusting the headset requires a certain amount of experience and should
therefore be left to your BERGAMONT dealer.
THREADLESS HEADSET – AHEADSET®
The distinct feature of this system is that the stem does not sit within the fork steerer
tube, but rather slips over the fork steerer tube, which in this case is threadless.
The stem is thus an important part of the headset, as the stem clamping fixes the
adjustment. You generally only need one or two Allen keys and a torque wrench to
adjust an Aheadset®.
Release the clamping bolt(s) located on the side of the stem by one to two turns (b).
Gently tighten the countersunk adjusting bolt on top a little, e.g. by a quarter turn (c),
using an Allen key.
Realign the stem to ensure that the handlebars are at right angle to the wheel. Make
sure the front wheel is in line with the top tube and the stem. Tighten the clamping
bolts of the stem. Use a torque wrench and never exceed the maximum torque
values! You will find the prescribed values in the chapter “Recommended torque
settings for your BERGAMONT bike”, directly on the components and/or in the
manuals of the component manufacturers.
Check the headset for play as described above (d). Do not overtighten the headset.
Risk of headset failure!
