NB!
If the bike has gear controls fitted to the handlebar post, these can be moved up or down to
the desired position. Ensure that the gear controls face upward and that the cables are not twisted.
Lubricate the expander bolt every time you remove the handlebar post from the fork tube. On certain
off-road bikes, the brake cable must be adjusted when the height of the handlebar post has been
adjusted. Do not attempt to adjust the brake cable if the bike has low-profile brakes with a cable stop
on the handlebar post.
Handlebar stem
The handlebar stem has two locking bolts at its rear end, which clamp around the fork tube. Slacken
the bolts and position the handlebar stem so that it is in line with the front wheel. Then retighten the
locking bolts.
IMPORTANT!
Do not adjust the upper compression bolt. This is set so as to eliminate bearing play. If it
is overtightened, this could result in wear.
