Release the bolt at the top of the fork steerer tube which serves to
adjust the initial bearing pressure and remove the Ahead cap.
Release the stem clamping bolts on either side of the stem and pull the
stem off the fork. Caution, the fork is no longer firm in the frame!
Now you can remove the spacers.
Remount the stem entirely on the fork steerer tube and slip the spacers
you have removed above the stem.
In case you want to turn the stem around: To do so release the bolts of
the stem front plate clamping the handlebars and remove them care-
fully. Refasten the handlebars after you have turned the stem.
Check whether the handlebars are firmly seated in the stem by trying to
rotate the handlebars downwards. Also check whether the handlebars/
stem unit can be turned relative to the fork. Do this by taking the front
wheel between your knees and trying to twist the handlebars. If the parts
can still be moved, the bolts must be carefully tightened once again and
the tight fit must be checked once again. Do not exceed the maximum
torque values.
STEVENS recommend that you always use handlebars and stem of the
same quality from the same manufacturer.
Adjusting the Bicycle to the Rider
Centre the handlebars accurately in the stem clamp, i.e. the drops
should be in parallel to the ground or point with the ends slight-
ly downwards. Retighten all bolts of the stem clamp with a torque
wrench by observing the correct torque values.
Readjust the headset and retighten the stem to the recommended
torque value after you have aligned it (see also chapter “The Headset”).
Danger:
Note that the bolted connec-
tions of the stem and the han-
dlebars have to be tightened
to specied torques. Other-
wise the handlebars or stem
may come loose or break. You
will nd the respective values
in chapter “Recommended
Torque Settings”, in the
operating instructions on the
STEVENS CD-ROM or directly
on the components.
Danger:
Stems come in very dierent
lengths and shaft and binder
tube diameters. A stem of
inappropriate dimensions
can become a serious source
of danger: Handlebars and
stem may break, causing an
accident in the process. Make
sure the stem clamp (the
handlebar clamping) and the
steerer tube clamping are free
of sharp edges. Your STEVENS
dealer will be pleased to
help you.
Caution: Please note that in the case of full carbon forks
sufficient clamping forces are mostly already
reached below the maximum torque values indicated by the stem man-
ufacturer! Please note that in the case of CRP-forks (CRP = carbon fibre
reinforced plastic = carbon) one spacer always remains above the stem to
ensure the biggest clamping surface possible of the stem. Too high torque
values can destroy the steerer tube.
