Make sure the stem is firmly fixed by taking the front wheel between your legs and trying to turn the handlebars and stem relative to the wheel (d). If there is movement, you have to increase the torque value. Do not exceed the maximum torque value.
If the handlebars are still too high or too low, you can replace the stem. This can be quite a big job, as it may mean taking off and remounting all the fittings on the handlebars. Ask your URBAN JUNGLE dealer for advice about the different types of stems.
WARNING
Never ride a URBAN JUNGLE bike with a stem that has been drawn out beyond the mark for the maximum permissible height (a)! Check all bolted connections and test your brakes before you set off!
NOTICE
Never try to unscrew the top race of the headset when you only want to adjust the stem, as you will otherwise alter the bearing play!
Stems - adjustable
There are various solutions for adjusting the tilt of the front part of adjustable stems (e):
Some designs use bolts on the sides of the joint (f), others have bolts coming from above or below, and others again are equipped with additional locking mechanisms or adjusting bolts.
Ask your URBAN JUNGLE dealer to explain you both function and adjustment of your stem or, still better, let him do that work.
For more information see the chapter «Adjustment of the height of the handlebars» and the manuals of the component manufacturers.
