ADJUSTMENT OF THE HEIGHT OF THE HANDLEBARS
The height of the handlebars compared to the saddle and the distance between sad-
dle and handlebars determine how much your upper body will be inclined forward.
Lowering the handlebars gives you a streamlined position and brings more weight to
bear on the front wheel. However, it also entails an extremely forward leaning posture
which is tiring and less comfortable, because it increases the strain on your wrists,
arms, back, upper body and neck.
There are three different stem systems that allow vertical adjustment of the handle-
bars, the conventional (c), the adjustable (d) and the Aheadset®-stem (e). These sys-
tems require special knowledge. In this regard, the descriptions hereafter may be in-
complete. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your BERGAMONT
dealer.
WARNING
The stem is one of the load bearing parts of your BERGAMONT bike. Changes to it
can impair your safety. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your
BERGAMONT dealer!
These routines require a certain amount of manual skill and (special) tools. Ask your
BERGAMONT dealer to explain you both function and adjustment of your stem or let
him do that work.
The bolted connections of stem and handlebars have to be tightened to the prescribed
torque values. If you disregard the prescribed values, the handlebars or stem may come
loose or break. 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 compo-
nent manufacturers.
Stems come in varying lengths (f) as well as shaft and binder tube diameters. A stem of
inappropriate dimension can become a source of danger: Handlebars, stems or forks
can break, resulting in an accident. When replacing any parts be sure to only use parts
that bear the appropriate mark and, to be on the safe side, original spare parts from
BERGAMONT or SYNCROS. Your BERGAMONT dealer will be pleased to help you.
