- a 56mm wrench (attached to this bike)
1. Loose the three screws on the head of the headtube
with a 4mm allen key but do not remove them
completely. These screws hold the insert in Place.
Please note that it is not necessary to disassemble
the fork or any other components.

attached to your bike/frameset. The slot of the insert
should always be in line with the slot of the
headtube clamp. The resulting angle is engraved in
the insert for both options.
3. IMPORTANT:
Please make sure that there is no gap between the
collar on the downside of the insert and the head
tube clamp on the frame.
