There are 2 basic types of handlebar mounting;  Quill and Threadless.

 

Quill Stems

 

This is a handlebar assembly that has a wedge shaped part at the bottom of the stem   

 

that is inserted into the fork steer tube. Loosen the center bolt enough so that the wedge  

 

and stem can slide into the fork steer tube. Lower the stem until the mark that says    

 

“minimum insertion” is not visible. Tighten the stem center bolt so that the handlebar  

 

assembly is in line with the fork. If needed, you can re-check this after the front wheel  

 

is installed, and re-adjust. (Fig. 3.6)

 

Threadless Stems

 

This is a handlebar assembly that has a open ended stem with 1 or more pinch bolts that  

 

goes outside of the fork steer tube. For this system it is important not to disassemble    

 

the headset and lose any parts. Be sure that the end of the fork is on the ground or    

 

being held with your free hand, because once you loosen the top cap, the fork assembly  

 

may fall out of the frame. Loosen the top cap of the fork steer and remove any cardboard  

 

packing, the top cap, and bolt. Set these aside so you can easily retrieve them. While    

 

holding the fork assembly in place, slide the handlebar assembly onto the fork tube.    

 

Replace the top cap and bolt. Tighten the top cap bolt only until the handlebar assembly  

 

and fork have no free play, but so that the handlebar assembly and fork can still freely   

 

turn left and right. Then tighten the pinch bolt(s) evenly with the handlebar assembly   

 

facing forward. If needed you can re-check this after the front wheel in installed, and    

 

re-adjust. (Fig. 3.7) 

 

 

 

NOTE:

 Comfort Series bicycles may be equipped with a stem that has an adjustable angle.  

 

In addition to the normal assembly, these stems will require angling the stem to the  

 

desired position, and securely tightening the angle bolt located in front of the stem  

 

bolt. Failure to do this may cause loss of steering control. (Fig. 3.8) 

 

 

If the stem is not inserted at least the “Minimum Insertion” mark, it is possible  

 

 

to over-tighten the stem bolt and damage the fork steerer tube. If these  

 

 

instructions are not followed, it could cause an unsafe condition and risk  

 

 

injury to the rider. Check steering tightness prior to riding by straddling the  

 

 

 

front wheel. Try turning the handlebar. If you can turn it without turning  

 

 

the front wheel, the stem is too loose. Re-align the handlebar with the  

 

 

front wheel and re-tighten the stem bolt.
