Stems for threadless systems – Aheadset®

In the case of BERGAMONT 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 BERGAMONT

bike” and the manuals of the component manufacturers on this BERGAMONT

info CD).

The vertical setting range is determined by the intermediate rings, also referred

to as spacers (b). In the case of flip-flop stem models the stem can be mounted

the other way round (c) 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 and release

the bolts on either side of the stem by up to three turns (d). 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 han-

dlebar height by the arrangement of stem and spacers. Slip the remaining spac-

ers onto the fork steerer tube above the stem. Adjust the headset, as described

in the chapter “The headset on the BERGAMONT bike“.

If you want to turn the stem around, you have to also release the bolts of the

faceplate securing the handlebars (e). If the stem is ﬁtted with a cap, you can

simply take out the handlebars at this point. If it is not fitted with a cap, you have

to remove the handlebar fittings.

Mount the handlebars and, if necessary, the handlebar fittings, as described

in the chapter “Adjustment of handlebar tilt and brake lever/shifter units on

BERGAMONT road bikes and BERGAMONT cyclo-cross bikes” and/or in the

manuals of the component manufacturers on this BERGAMONT info CD.

Check after the adjustment or assembly, whether the handlebars are firmly seat-

ed in the stem by trying to rotate the handlebars downwards (f). Verify whether

the handlebar/stem-combination can be turned relative to the fork. Do this by

taking the front wheel between your knees and trying to twist the handlebars.

If there is movement, carefully tighten the bolts a little more by using the torque

wrench, observe the maximum torque value and check again the proper fit.

Tighten carefully by approaching the prescribed maximum torque value in small

steps (0.5 Nm increments) and check in between the proper fit of the component.

DANGER!

The stem is one of the load-bearing parts of your BERGAMONT bike.

Changes to it can impair your safety. If you are in doubt or if you have any

questions, contact your BERGAMONT dealer!

DANGER!

These routines require a certain amount of manual skill and (special) tools.

Ask your BERGAMONT dealer to explain you both function and adjustment

of your stem or let him do that work.

DANGER!

The bolted connections of stem and handlebars have to be tightened to

the prescribed torque values. If you disregard the prescribed values, the

handlebars or stem may come loose or break. Use a torque wrench and never

exceed the maximum torque values! You will find the prescribed values in the

chapter “Recommended torque settings for your BERGAMONT bike”, directly

on the components and/or in the manuals of the component manufacturers on

this BERGAMONT info CD.

DANGER!

Stems come in varying lengths (a) as well as shaft and binder tube diam-

eters. A stem of inappropriate dimension can become a source of danger:

Handlebars, stems or forks can break, resulting in an accident. When replacing

any parts be sure to only use parts that bear the appropriate mark and, to be on

the safe side, original spare parts from BERGAMONT. Your BERGAMONT dealer

will be pleased to help you.

CAUTION!

If you choose to use the product of another manufacturer, make sure it is

compatible with the BERGAMONT components. BERGAMONT assumes no

responsibility for problems resulting from the use of non- BERGAMONT pro-

ducts. Make sure the handlebar/stem-combination is approved by the handle-

bar and/or stem manufacturer.

CAUTION!

Make sure the handlebar clamping area is free of sharp edges.
