D.2). Take care to not pinch or break the headlight cable. Tighten the stem
pinch bolt enough to keep the fork from sliding out of the headtube. The
headlight cable should exit through the bottom of the head tube (Figure
D.3). Remove the optional bungee or rubber band.
5. Detach the two cables on the down tube. Let them hang freely; these are
the headlight power cable and selector communication (COM) cable.
6. Now connect the headlight cable to the headlight power lead. It’s easy to
identify the power lead; the headlight cable connector is only compatible
with the power lead connector. Securely thread the stainless steel fasteners
on the connector (Figure D.4).
7. Make a loop with the headlight cable and reinsert it in the steerer tube
through the bottom of the fork crown. The connector should not be visible
now; it should be seated inside the steerer tube. You will need to leave at
least a one-inch loop of headlight cable to allow the wheel to fully turn
without binding. (Figures D.5 & D.6)
8. Install the top cap and finger-tighten the top cap bolt carefully, to avoid
damaging the headlight cable. Loosen the stem pinch bolt. Tighten the
stem cap bolt to preload the bearings and remove any play from the
headset. Align the stem to the front fork, and tighten the stem pinch
bolts to their designated torque. There should be no lateral play in the
stem and steerer.
9. Connect the selector cable to the selector COM cable and confirm that
the stainless steel fasteners are properly secured.
10. Check the cable routing. From the outermost cable: the selector COM
cable is ziptied to the front brake cable; the motor cable should sit
between the front brake and the rear brake cables; the shifter cable is
routed on the opposite (rider’s right) side of the head tube (Figure E.1).
