Add or remove headset spacers
•
Line up the stem along side of the steerer tube.
•
You should have approximately ¼ of an inch from the top of
the fork steerer tube and the top of the stem opening.
•
If you have more than a ¼ of an inch, if possible, remove one
or more of the extra headset spacers.
•
If you have less than a ¼ of an inch, add one or more headset
spacers.
Note: Headset spacers come in various sizes.
Adjusting the headset
•
Spin the forks and stem to determine how much the headset
needs to be adjusted.
•
If the headset has play in it, you'll need to tighten the
compression bolt/cap. If the headset is too hard to spin, you'll
need to loosen the compression bolt/cap. You may need to spin
them a few times until you have it adjusted.
•
Slightly tighten the pinch bolts but do not fully tighten them
yet.
Note: Do not over-tighten the compression bolt/cap! You can
damage the fork and/or the headset bearings.
These instructions are to be used as a guide only. Improperly installed parts may lead to severe injury or harm. We strongly recommend that
