Using the included hex wrench, loosen and remove the bolts and
faceplate from the stem. The stem connects the handlebar to the
fork. Set the bolts and faceplate aside together, so you don’t lose
anything.
Place the handlebar into the stem and verify the brake hoses and
shift cables wrap around the frame cleanly, without visible kinks in
the lines.
Loosely reattach the faceplate to the stem. Take care to not tighten
one bolt more than another. The goal is a consistent gap between the
stem and faceplate.
Center the handlebar in the stem using the markings on the bar, then
roll the bars back into a comfortable position.
Hand-tighten the stem bolts using the 4mm hex wrench, ensuring
there’s an even gap between the stem body and faceplate at both
the top and bottom of the stem. You will fully tighten these later.
