WARNING
Note that the bolted connections of adjustable stems and handlebars have to be tighte- ned to the specified torques. Otherwise the handlebars or stem may come loose or break. Use a torque wrench and observe the minimum and maximum torque values! You will find the prescribed values in the chapter «Recommended torque settings for your URBAN JUNGLE bike», directly on the components and/or in the manuals of the component manufacturers.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Keep in mind that readjusting the position of the stem changes the position of handle- bars, brake levers and shifters. Readjust these components, as described in the chapter «Adjustment of handlebar tilt and brake levers“.
Stems for threadless systems – Aheadset®
In the case of URBAN JUNGLE bikes with Aheadset® headsets the stem also serves to adjust the bearing preload. If you change the position of the stem, you have to readjust the bearing play (see the chapter «The headset on the URBAN JUNGLE bike» and the manuals of the component manufacturers).
The vertical setting range is determined by the intermediate rings, also referred to as spacers (a). In the case of flip-flop stem models (b) the stem can be mounted the other way round to achieve a different handlebar height.
For modifications unscrew the bolt at the top of the fork steerer tube which serves to adjust the initial bearing pressure, remove the Ahead cap (c) and release the bolts on either side of the stem by up to three turns. Remove stem and spacers from the fork steerer tube. In doing so keep hold of both frame and fork to prevent the fork from slipping off the head tube.
You can determine the handlebar height by the arrangement of stem and spacers. Slip the remaining spacers onto the fork steerer tube above the stem. Adjust the headset, as described in the chapter «The headset on the URBAN JUNGLE bike“.
