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 with the top of the
steerer (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.
Never exceed the maximum torque value indicated by SCOTT! Ask your SCOTT
dealer to explain you both function and adjustment of your stem or, still better,
let him do that work.
DANGER!

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 SCOTT 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 SCOTT
dealer, but only after you have found your preferred position.
What to bear in mind with SCOTT bikes with carbon steerer
Always make sure before assembly to use a headset compatible with the stem.
We recommend the use of a SYNCROS stem and headset when mounting a
SCOT T/SYNCROS carbon fork, as they are designed to work together. If you
choose to use the product of another manufacturer, make sure it is compatible
with the SCOTT/SYNCROS fork. SCOTT assumes no responsibility for problems
resulting from the use of non-SCOTT/SYNCROS 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 stem and the top cap of the headset (b). Do use a minimum of 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 the steerer tube is cut to the desired length, be sure to remove all burrs
at the top of the steerer tube. Make sure to wear appropriate safety protec-
tion, 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. Dis-
pose of it immediately.
7. Clamp the stem onto the steerer tube with a maximum of 6 Nm (f) and
respect also 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 SCOT T/
SYNCROS dealer. SCOTT will not be liable in case a not originally provided
SCOTT or SYNCROS stem is used on the bike assembly. In case of further
questions, please contact your authorized SCOT T/SYNCROS dealer or the
national distributor of SCOT T/SYNCROS.
