 Note: 

Only adjust your handlebar using the specified socket-head screws; do not loosen any other 

bolts. Adjust your handlebar with care. To be able to ride safely, the handlebar must be firmly 
clamped in the stem. Otherwise your handlebar may rotate while you are cycling. If you adjust 
the handlebar yourself, you are responsible for doing so correctly.

 Note: 

If you tighten the socket-head screw too tightly, you may damage the stem. See the mini-

instructions on the handlebar itself for the maximum torque specification.
