REPLACE THE STEM FACE PLATE
Place the face plate onto the extender as you did
on the stem body (as in step 03 of "SETTING
UP: FITTING THE HANDLEBARS"). Insert the
face-plate bolts through the face plate into the
extender and then evenly tighten each of them
(not fully, just enough to hold the handlebars in
place), making sure that the handlebars are in the
correct position.
POSITION THE HANDLEBAR
Use the guides marked on the handlebars to
centralise them, then adjust the angle by rolling
them slightly backwards or forwards.
TIGHTEN THE STEM FACE PLATE
When you are happy with the position of the
handlebar, tighten the stem face plate bolts
evenly to 7Nm (5.2ft-lb). Be sure to keep the gap
between the face plate and the extender the
same for both top and bottom.
Now go ride in a better-fitting, confidence
inspiring position... yeah!

TIGHTEN EVENLY
Tighten each bolt a little at
a time so that the load is evenly
spread and there is an even gap
between face-plate and stem.
