6.5.5.1 Replacing the handlebars

Not included in price
Handlebar-stem units are components that may
§
be replaced after approval by the vehicle or parts
manufacturer. A stem must be replaced if cable
and/or line lengths do not need to be changed. A
change in riding position is allowed within the
original cable length. Furthermore, the load
distribution on the pedelec changes considerably
and may potentially lead to critical steering
performance

6.5.5.3 Checking the stem stability

 Hold handlebars firmly after adjusting the
saddle. Press full body weight on the
handlebars.
 The handlebars remain stable in their position.
6.5.5.4 Adjusting the quick release clamping
force
CAUTION
!
Crash caused by incorrectly set clamping
force
Applying excessive clamping force damages the
quick release. Insufficient clamping force will
result in unfavourable transmission of force. This
can cause components to break. This will cause a
crash with injuries.
 Never fasten a quick release using a tool (e.g.
hammer or pliers).
If the handlebar clamping lever stops before
reaching its end position, unscrew the knurled nut.
 Tighten the knurled nut on the seat post if the
seat post clamping lever's clamping force is not
effective enough.
 Contact your specialist dealer if the clamping
force cannot be set.
